Thanks for doing this. Your code worked but when I used it in my program it
still failed. Turns out that SetFileDate doesn't work if the file is open.
I had something like
Open from
Open to
Copy (from, to)
if (do_clone) SetFileDate()
Close to
Close From
I moved the Close to code to before the SetFileDate and now it works.
Thanks for the help.
