Doesn't look like that's the case Michael. I have a file time stamp changing every hour but the folder time stamp is at midnight. Probably when the file name changes?
Thomas I will check into this - writing a VB script will be a challenge though (for me :-). If you have any examples I could use as a guide I'd appreciate it. Send to me directly if you want. Thanks for the ideas Barry Dirk - Ditto the strong helpful community for "SA strong points" :-) ________________________________________ From: Servers Alive Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Michael Shook Sent: May 30, 2007 1:56 PM To: Servers Alive Discussion List Subject: RE: [SA-list] File Properties System Date Parameter? If I'm not mistaken, if you give the file properties check only the folder name in which the log files live, then it will check the modified time of the folder, which should be the modified time of the most recently modified file in that folder.

Hi all, I need to check a remote log file is being updated every x minutes (creation time change). Each day it creates a new file with a name based on system date. Is there a way to parses this name change via the File Properties app? We would use this to check if a service has hung. If not, what suggestions can people make?
