    The reason is that the sources of those two tabs are completely different.
    The GENERAL tab represents the Operating System times in the directory.
    The STATISTICS tab represent the application times stored in the file
    itself.
    
    If a file is  moved to a machine with a munged date/time setting, the
    GENERAL tab stuff may change to an incorrect time, but internal time does
    not change.
    Similarly, if the file is edited on a machine with a different date/time
    setting, then the STATISTICS times can change without the OS times in
    GENERAL changing.

    Good Morning All,
    
    Using Windows NT 4.0 file manager to review the file properties for files
    located on a floppy I came across something I don't understand and hope one
    or more of you may have an answer.
    
    The GENERAL tab of the file properties gives you the created, modified and
    accessed dates and times for file.
    
    The STATISTICS tab also gives you the same categories but also gives you a
    printed date and time.
    
    For one of the files that I'm reviewing, the created date and time are
    different between the GENERAL and STATISTICS tabs.  The GENERAL one is July
    7, 2000 and the STATISTICS one is July 10, 2000.  The printed field
    indicates the file was printed on July 9, 2000.  
    
    Does anyone know why the created dates could be different for the same file?
    How would I explain how a document could be printed before it is created?
    
    I am confident that someone out there has ran into this before and I
    apologize if this has been covered previously.
    
    Respectfully,
    Ava M. Martin
