The "Modified" column shows the current date and time instead of the date and time that you configured in a custom program in SharePoint Portal Server 2003

The custom program also configures the date and time that appear in the Modified column for the discussion items. However, after you run the custom program, the Modified column for the discussion items shows the current date and time instead of the date and time that you configured in the custom program.
