Determine Last Modified Date of Word File From ASP

Question:
Is it possible to find out the last modified date of a Microsoft Word file on a server, through an ASP page?

Answer:

Yes it is. Use the ‘DateLastModified’ property of the ‘File’ Object in ASP.

    Dim fs, f, s, filespec    filespec = "Your Word File Name here"    Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")    Set f = fs.GetFile(filespec)    s = UCase(filespec) & vbCrLf    s = s & "Created: " & f.DateCreated & vbCrLf    s = s & "Last Accessed: " & f.DateLastAccessed & vbCrLf    s = s & "Last Modified: " & f.DateLastModified      response.write s    set f = nothing    set fs = nothing
