Default Shortcut Key: none

 

Macro function: FileProperties()

 

The File Properties command displays a dialog box containing information about the file on disk which is associated with the editor's current file.  The file's long and short names, create/modify/access times, file size and file attributes are all displayed. Because this command reports information about the current file's disk file, it will be disabled when editing a file which has yet to be written to disk.
