OK, so I've got loads of files on my hard disk whose date is "Bad Date!", and when I extract files from an archive that I download sometimes those as well have a "Bad Date!" What would be the recommended procedure for attaching a good date to these files? -Rob Knop rknop@tybalt.caltech.edu

What would be the recommended procedure for attaching a >good date to these files? When I have files with a bad date, the date is listed as "<invalid> <invalid>". I don't know where the "Bad Date!" is coming from. ARP has a "SetDate" command. I can't remember if AmigaDOS has one or not. I suspect not. -- * From the disk of: | jms@vanth.uucp | "Let's become Jim Shaffer, Jr. | amix.commodore.com!vanth!jms | alive again." 37 Brook Street | uunet!cbmvax!amix!vanth!jms | Montgomery, PA 17752 | 72750.2335@compuserve.com | --Yes
