  static void SetStatus( const char* pszFileName,
                         const CFileStatus& status )
  throw( CFileException );
 
  Parameter     Description
 
  <pszFileName> A string that is the path to the desired file. The path
                may be relative or absolute, but may not contain a network
                name.
 
  <status>      The buffer containing the new status information. Call
                GetStatus to prefill the CFileStatus structure with
                current values, then make changes as required. If a value
                is 0, then the corresponding status item is not updated.
                See ◄GetStatus► for a description of the CFileStatus
                structure.
 
  Remarks
 
  Sets the status of the file associated with this file location.
 
  Under MS-DOS, all times in the CFileStatus structure contain the same
  value.
 
  To set the time, modify the m_mtime field of <status>.
 
  The SetStatus function will throw an exception under MS-DOS if the
  file's read-only attribute is set.
 
  Example
 
  char* pFileName = "test.dat";
  extern BYTE newAttribute;
  CFileStatus status;
  CFile::GetStatus( pFileName, status );
  status.m_attribute = newAttribute;
  CFile::SetStatus( pFileName, status );
