Question

Captivate project file date mismatch?

I noticed recently that when I do a Save As in Captivate, the date for the file shown in the folder view of the Save As window does not match the date in the Windows Explorer window. It's confusing and causes a bit of panic when I notice it, because I assume I've lost the version I was working on. Has anyone else seen this behavior? The date shown in the Save As window seems to correspond to the date I created the file, so could it be that Windows shows the date created by default in the Save As view?

    I think you will find those dates are not referring to the same thing.

    Check to see if one is the Create Date and the other is Date Modified.

    Thanks Rod. You're right. I just tried opening a couple other projects and found that they show a "Date Modified" field rather than a "Date" field. This appears to be my only project that displays the Date field.
