you can use "FileDate, FileSize, IfFileExists..." but can you also perform actions based on other file properties (for example owner, last opened, artist, title, ID3 tag content...) ?
I want to sort/select files based on properties you can view in the Windoze Explorer's "details" view...
this would be of great help to me
Thanks!

Search these forums for FileSystemObject for examples of getting file properties such as DateLastAccessed, DateLastModified etc.
For media file information such as title or artist you can't do this with operating sytem calls or the FileSystemObject but it should be possible with Microsoft's Windows Media Format SDK which you can download from their site. Apparently the Reader object exposes a IWMHeaderInfo interface which will give you info you from Windows Media and MP3 files.

I was just getting an update to TreeSize Professional 3.3(used it for years) and I ran across this free utility: FileList V1.3
I have not tried it yet myself, but I thought it might have some value in response to this earlier posting.FileList is a command line utility that produces a list of files of the given path in the CSV format, which can be imported in a spreadsheet or database.
The list includes the file name, the size, the path, the last access and change date, etc. Under Windows NT/2000/XP it also includes the owner of the file.
Usage:
FILELIST [/AUTHORS] [/FILTER pattern1;pattern2;...] Path [>list.csv]
/AUTHORS Additionally extracts name of the author from MS Office documents
/FILTER Allows to specify one or more filters, separated with semicolons.
The wildcards '*' and '?' may be used.
Using > the output can be redirected to a file.
Hope this was helpful..................good luck,
