Can't get correct Workbook Create date from VBA

M

MikeZz

Hi,
I'm trying to get the correct file creation date from an open,active excel
workbook.

When I go to File\Properties\General tab, it shows it was created March 18,
2008.
When I go to File\Properties\Statistics tab, it shows it was created October
14, 1996.

When I use this command:
fileDate = ActiveWorkbook.BuiltinDocumentProperties(11)

I get this result:
"10/14/1996 7:33:28 PM"

I am really trying to get the date on the General Tab.
So I'm really stumped as to what's going on.

Any ideas?

Thanks MikeZz
