The Folder Object
The Folder object is used to return information about a specified folder.
To work with the properties and methods of the Folder object, you will have to
create an instance of
the Folder object through the FileSystemObject object. First; create a FileSystemObject
object and then instantiate the Folder object through the GetFolder method of the
FileSystemObject object.
The following code uses the GetFolder method of the FileSystemObject object to
instantiate the Folder object and the DateCreated property to return the date when
the specified folder was created:
<%
Dim fs,fo
Set fs=Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set fo=fs.GetFolder("c:\test")
Response.Write("Folder created: " & fo.DateCreated)
set fo=nothing
set fs=nothing
%>
Output:
Folder created: 10/22/2001 10:01:19 AM
