FileProperties

Returns the basic file properties (date and size) for a given file and path. Return values include: file size in bytes, and last modified date-time (in GMT). If no saved file is found for the given file name and path, the function returns a -1 as a return code, with 0 (zero) for the size and blank or null value for date properties.
