This can be used to get the creation or modification date of a file, or as a 'File exists' utility.

Syntax:
FileModDate(<"PathName">,
<needCreation>)
Returns the date of the last modification of the file in ticks, or empty ("") if there is an error.
"PathName" is the full pathname to the target.
<needCreation> can be true or false. If it is true, the function will return the creation date, otherwise it will return the modification date.
