Date stamp incorrect

I just found an anomaly with Archicad file.

Earlier this month I revised a drawing from June of last year. However when I when to open it, the file date was listed as June 28, 2012 even though it had been revised Jan. 21, 2013. I opened the file again today made some changes and when I saved it again the system date was June 29, 2012. The computer system clock registers currently & the .lck file shows today's date correctly.

In looking at the properties it lists the modified time correctly as well.

Can anyone advise?

Sounds like you might be looking at the date created rather than the date modified.

There are all sorts of dates for a file but these are the main two.

Nope. My explorer was showing the date in the Modified column but that date wasn't changing when I save Archicad files. Everything else showed correctly.

However, since saving the last time when I closed Archicad, it is now showing correctly.

Hmmmm.
