Windows updates the Modified Date when a process closes the file, even if
the file is shared with other processes. Since SuperServer makes an exclusive
attachment, the Modified Date doesn't change until the server closes the
database file. In Classic, the Modified Date change each time a client closes
its connection.

Good luck,
