What is the command in EB to set the attributes on a file?

More specifically, I want to reset the "archive" bit.

Plan is to create my own backup software, since I don't like anything I can find out there in cyberspace. I'll copy a file to a backup space, then reset the archive bit on the original file.

Thanks!!

Thanks, Larry!

I was hoping EBasic had it built in, but I've got it working your way with the Windows API call. Thanks for the pointer!  :)

Now the hard part ... figuring out EXACTLY what I want this program to do!!!
