R help - Oct 2009 - How to get "last status change", ctime on Windows?

Hi,

file.info is producing data.frame with ctime variable. Help file says
that on Unix this is 'last status change' and on Windows 'creation
time'. Is there a way to get 'last status change' on Windows using
some R function?

Thanks,
Johannes

What does "last status change" mean on Windows?  mtime is the last 
modification time; is that good enough?  If mtime isn't what you want, 
describe some other way in Windows to get what you do want.  You can't 
get something that the OS doesn't maintain.
