***********
Does anyone know of an easy way to "touch" a file in MSDOS?
i.e to modify the time stamp to the current time.
There must be some clever dos call that will do such a thing.

Thanks in advance,

Easy -- just use INT 21H, function code 57 (get/set a file's date and
time).  It's documented on page D-51 of the DOS 2.00 manual.
