Now I found why my box was reporting times for the second column: SET LFN=N, sorry
Eli, here is a test with LFN=Y.

Surprise! Creation in the future!
Why? don't know so I did the same but this time using SET LFN=Y all the time (first
time the files were created with LFN=N). Here is the process:
1) "ftimes > foo1" to create the first.
2) "cp foo1 foo2" and so on to create foo2 to 9
3) "ftimes foo[1-9] > pp" gives:
foo1 06/29/1998 15:51:12.380 06/29/1998 00:00:00.000 06/29/1998 15:51:14.000
foo2 06/29/1998 15:51:17.940 06/29/1998 00:00:00.000 06/29/1998 15:51:18.000
foo3 06/29/1998 15:51:19.870 06/29/1998 00:00:00.000 06/29/1998 15:51:20.000

foo5 06/29/1998 15:51:21.540 06/29/1998 00:00:00.000 06/29/1998 15:51:22.000

All OK.
4) Now: touch foo[1-9]:
foo1 06/29/1998 15:51:12.380 06/29/1998 00:00:00.000 06/29/1998 15:51:44.000

Again! the files are in the future. Looks like touch is messing the creation time. I'll run
the second test to see if that shows the exact problem.
