file statistics??
Is there any command in Unix (HP-UX) which will give me the file statistics ..
e.g
I have a file called r001
if I created that file on 2nd of aug 2005 and till now I changed that file contents 10 times. So how will I get the history statistic(time & date) of file modification.

No. And most OS filesystem implementations would never provide this feature by default because of the possibility of the large overhead involved if all filesystems were audited.

You can:

Get or write file auditing software based on the change/notify concept available in Linux kernels since 2.4
Use the auditd in Linux 2.6 kernel to audit file operations
