Do you have any control over how the files are placed on the FTP server? &nbsp;Because if they FTDd in a ZIP file, the timestamps will be preserved when you download and unzip them.

In VB6, I am using FTP to retrieve files using Microsoft Internet Transfer Control 6.0 (MSINET.OCX). I believe that this OCX changes the date stamp of each retrieved file (on my local hard drive) to be the current date / time when the file is written to my local hard drive. Is there a way to either:<br />
A. preserve the file's original date /time stamp, or<br />
B. read the original file's date / time (from the FTP server)?<br />

FTP: preserve the file's original date /time stamp?

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
