Stamper: a Windows Utility to change the Date/Times on a range of files
Description:
Stamper is a utility to alter the date/time on a range of files to any specified date/time. Requires Windows 3.1
Installation:
Can be run in any directory. Requires no supplementary files. Only the EXE file is required to run the program.
Use:
Press the Select button to bring up a file selection dialog box. Select one or more files from the file list box, using Shift and Ctrl to select multiple items. Click OK to close the box and confirm your selection. To edit the date/time, click on the edit box, and enter the date/time in numerical form in the following format:
year-month-day-hour-minute-second.
Each field requires 2 digits, with no spaces in between. When you've selected some files and edited the date/time, press the Alter button to alter the dates on the files.
Note:
Due to the way MS-DOS stores file date/times, the seconds field is rounded down to the nearest (lower) even number!
Disclaimer:
No responsibility accepted for any damage to this software or any other running on your system. (But it's pretty unlikely!) Not been tested under Windows NT (any processor), but works under OS/2 2.x.

Source:
I've included the Pascal source file (compiled using Borland Pascal 7.0: Windows target) and also the resource file. Any improvements to this program will be gratefully received, particularly since I'm not that great at ObjectWindows programming. Perhaps someone out there would like to convert it into a Windows File Manager DLL.
