Interesting. I've got Winzip 9 on my Windows 2000 & Windows XP SP2
computer. Winzip under Windows 2000 keeps the folder dates, but with
Windows XP it doesn't.
Did you test using Windows XP?
absolutely - But I was checking the FILE dates; are you saying the date on
the FOLDER is wrong? Let me check that... Yup, when it makes a new
FOLDER it gets the current date, not the date of the orginal folder, but
the files inside do get their orginal creation date.
That makes sense to me, a zip is an archive of files, it doesn't save a
folder's attributes, just the original path of each file; recreating that
path requires it to make new folder's and it apparently doesn't go back
and alter the creation data of the folder to be... what, the date of the
oldest file within? Not much logic either way really... I'm surprised
it's different in W2K too. Oh well...
So, you're half way there at least! Good Luck...
