How would I go about retrieving the modification date of a specific file without using the “choose file” window? I want to sepcify a certain file in code to retrieve the modification date.
If you have a valid file path stored in a variable - let’s call it “f” - you just call the Finder:
tell app "Finder"
-- optional: set f to f as alias
set modDate to modification date of f
end tell
Hope it helps
