no web server atm. so the win7 file properties images I can't show you but they are totally different from the variables I am getting..But then I am just guesstamating the code needed from any and all sources i can find to just get the Minutes difference between 2 files. I can touch the files to change anything, but can't get the value to use it and using FilesetTime/ only works with the Help code. and it is way over my head. I have searched the web looking for a step by step but it's all in arrays that array me. The FileSetTime ;Modified help file #include <FileConstants.au3> #include <MsgBoxConstants.au3> $sFilePath=("C:\file1.txt") Local $iFileSetTime = FileSetTime($sFilePath, "20031101121101" ) ; Display the modified timestamp of the file and return as a string in the format YYYYMMDDHHMMSS. If $iFileSetTime Then ; MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", "Timestamp:" & @CRLF & FileGetTime($sFilePath, $FT_ACCESSED, 2 )) RETURNS Timestamp: ; MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", "Timestamp:" & @CRLF & FileGetTime($sFilePath, 2 )) RETURNS Timestamp: ; MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", "Timestamp:" & @CRLF & FileGetTime($sFilePath, "YYYYMMDDHHMMSS" )) RETURNS Timestamp: ; MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", "Timestamp:" & @CRLF & FileGetTime($sFilePath, $FT_MODIFIED, 1)) RETURNS Timestamp: The only one that returns Anything is the last one and it returns the whole string..Timestamp:20031101121101 ; RETURNS Timestamp:20031101121101 File Properties accessed time and date ?Saturday, ?November ?01, ?2003, ??1:01:00 AM File EndIf changed created date but displays YYYYMMDDHHMMSS" So I got creative and after /////..... and more of that got this to work..

I only want the minute difference. the "Creation date of 2a" tag gives a 0 minute value==and in 3 hours now it still gives the 0 minute value the "time change" tag gives a 28 minute value ==== and in 3 hours now it still gives the 28 minute value Win7 "File Properties" tag gives ?Sunday, ?June ?22, ?2014, ??1:11:42 PM ------------FileSetTime(@ScriptDir &"002a.jpg", "2003110120031101121101", 1) Saturday, ?June ?28, ?2014, ??3:05:36 PM Sunday, ?June ?22, ?2014, ??1:11:42 PM Saturday, ?November ?01, ?2003, ??7:03:11 PM --------------------FileGetTime(@ScriptDir & "00Filescore2a.jpg", 1) Saturday, ?June ?28, ?2014, ??3:05:36 PM ?Today, ?June ?30, ?2014, ??5 minutes ago U know I think I learned more in the two hours it took to write this very bad dissertation of the issue. Researching everything I wanted to say and try to explain the steps took to get the results.
