vl-file-systime does not work on open file

[Ahankhah]

Hi all,

 

Although vl-file-systime works fine on most files (even readonly ones), it doesn't work on open files.

 

Could any one introduces alternatives to vl-file-systime function to get the time of such files?

 

I appreciate any help and clues to solve the problem

Please check the DOS_FILEDATE from DOSLib pack (freeware).

(rtos (cdar (dos_filedate (strcat (getvar "DWGPREFIX") (getvar "DWGNAME")))) 2 10)

Using ActiveX, 'FileSystemObject' and 'datelastmodified' property.
