How could I find out who modify the file

1
When a file changes (.doc or .txt file) by some user, is there away to find out who modify that file in vb.net?

I know how to find the creator of the file but not the one, who modify the file.

What you are asking is simply not possible. Windows does not track the user id for users who modify files. Only the creator.
