Sets the attribute information for a specified file.
SetAttr PathName As String, Attributes As Integer
FileName: Name of the file, including the path, that you want to test attributes of. If you do not enter a path, SetAttr searches for the file in the current directory. You can also use URL notation.
Attributes: Bit pattern defining the attributes that you want to set or to clear:
| Named constant | Value | Definition | 
|---|---|---|
| ATTR_NORMAL | 0 | Normal files. | 
| ATTR_READONLY | 1 | Read-only files. | 
| ATTR_HIDDEN | 2 | Hidden file | 
You can set multiple attributes by combining the respective values with a logic OR statement.
