thanks Remy,
I googled for this problem and I seem to remember that
I read the post you refer to. So, it seems like the function
SetFileTime() is practically useless for setting the last
access time.
What I find curious, though, is that Microsoft tells you to
get a handle via CreateFile(), then set the file time and then
close the handle what causes the System to update the file
access date.
I guess I will have to constrain the user to change the last
write and creation date only.

thanks,
Nick
