How do I get a date and time stamp from a file. I'm reading from a file using fopen(), but I cannot find a way to get the date or time. Any help would be appreciated.

  The created / modified date in the windows file property thing?

  yes I want to be able to use that date in my program using dev-c++. I'm trying to compare the file's date to today's date, and if they are not the same it will give me an error. This will make sure that the files I'm editing are current (as of the day the program is run).
