Default Checking File Attributes of Excel CSV over Inter/Intra Net


I have been reading up on DSO for closes files, and
BuiltinDocumentProperties but none seem to work over the web.

I have to check a CSV every morning at random times to see if its
updated, and instead of making sloppy code to save yesterdays results
and bash against today's results, I was wondering if there were a more
efficient way.

Anyone have any insight to this problem??

Thanks,
Nick

Nick,

Why not check the DateLastModified attribute of the file and
compare that to the last time you looked at it?

Your wasting your time looking at DSO for this problem. That would only be
applicable to a document using the compound document format in Office.
