Alas this doesn't appear to work. In NT4 I still get the 'modified' 
creation dates. Maybe that switch only applies to files and not 
directories? I think I'll try using XXCOPY on a Win98 machine 
instead. Could be that NT4 is doing something different, even though 
I am a local admin on the machine in question. Will let you know how 
I make out from Win98.
