[AccessD] A2k - changes item create dates when opening

I am upgrading an old A97 system to 2k3 but have to go through 2k first.
It is a front end connected to 2 back ends.   I currently have them in
2k.  

When I open the mdb it takes a little time nothing substantial.
Then when I look at the FORMS or REPORTS it has changed all the create
and modify dates to the current date.   This doesn't help me know which
ones I have finished correcting or changing or when.  Why is it doing
this and how can I stop it.

I never saw this happen in A97 for the last 10+ years.
Thanks
