Hi,
I need to check the creation date of a PS file on a daily basis for production support monitoring. Currently we are automating this along with some other validations. How do i get the creation date of a PS file through a job apart from getting julian date by using LISTCAT and then converting it. |

Hello,
Why convert the date?
Can you not simply compare the create data against today's date (both Julian)? |

Its for production support to ensure that the file is created within a particular time limit |

Unfortunately this to me sounds like another cobbled together hardly tested or thought out application.
But without understanding the application there is nothing that I or anyone else can suggest to make this task any easier. |
