hi,

I've got this line of code in my script:

-----
if (Date - File.DateLastModified > cint(MaxAgeOfFile)) Or _
     (cint(MaxAgeOfFile) = 0) _
Then
-----

unfortunately the if clause will always be true. as it seems the
second condition after the 'or' is no comparison anymore but it gets
run as an assignment.

i don't program vba often so please apologize if i miss the obvious.
