This is a normal problem with backup and restore ... yes it is possible to restore the dates at the time, and it is also possible to restore them now, but you'd have to have a directory listing showing what they were. I don't think the dates should merely be fudged to the correct year and month ... there's no way to specify accuracy on those dates. -- James Cameron mailto:quozl at us.netrek.org http://quozl.netrek.org/
