Find out when text file last saved

[kieran]

Hi,

I import data every evening through a scheduled task from a text file.
Once the data is imported, an email is sent to a user saying how much
data etc.. was in the file.

In case the file has not been updated each day, i would like to
include in the email the date and time the file was last updated. Is
there some way to get this using vb.net from a text file i.e. to tell
when the file was last saved.

Thanks for all help.

'System.IO.File.GetLastWriteTime'.

Aye, there is:

File.GetLastWriteTime(strTheFilePath)
