Edit without changing Date Modified

Post by Pete Allison »

This is going to seem like a really stupid question, so if you don't have a decent comment, please don't respond.

I have to put several revisions of source code under source control, and I need to add a keyword block to each file for the source control software. However, I don't want to change the Modified Date attribute for each file just for this one change.

I don't think AFR will do this (maybe it will;) and was wondering if anyone has seen a program that might. I could write some code, but would rather find/buy something.

Thanks,
Pete

So you need to modify file and keep original file's date?
It's possible with AFR. Please go to main menu - Action - Options -
General. Then check "Keep original file date" option.

I'm using Ver 1.4.1, and I don't see it on Action, Options, General Tab.
However, if it's available it a later version, I'll see if procurement will buy it.

This is free update (for now). Download the latest version.
Install it over existing version. It will update needed files.
Use the same reg key is needed.

BTW, I bought the latest version prior to you providing a demo version. Works great. Thanks!
