file properties

[Frank]

Hi,

I want to read the properties of files on a directory, especially the
'version'. Does anyone have code for that?
I want to use it in access97.

Thanks in advance

Although the code in the first 2 locations is targeted toward VB and VB.NET,
there should be no problem utilizing it from within Access 97. The last url at
The Access Web may help with that.
