| Description |
|
The creation date and time of the specified PathString is returned as a DateTime value. This can actually specify a directory (folder) as well as a file.
|
| | Notes | An exception is thrown if the PathString path is not found.
Static methods are not methods of an object - they are simply class functions or procedures available at any time.
