Thread: Editing 'Last updated" field

  1. #1

    Editing 'Last updated" field

    *If there is a topic explaining how to do this please point me to it. *
    I am trying to figure out how to edit the Date Modified field of a file. Example: I have to submit files to my teachers every couple days into his file through the schools networks. If I was to turn one of these in late he would know because the last updated date would show him I was working on it after the due date. Is it possible to change this so even if I had edited something 5 days after it was due I can submit it and he would think he just overlooked it? Any help would be most appreciated.

    p.s. don't just tell me to do my homework on time, I get lazy, so sue me.

    well if you use a *nix based system you can use the touch command.
    touch -m timehere filename.txt

    If not im sure windows has something like it.
