Martin,

Yes I posted that awhile back.     One utility of my software
package(ETIKIT)  is a IFS history log.    It captures what you see when use
Action Option 8 on the WRKLNK or the STAT api.     You can run a capture
anytime you want(most people schedule it once a week or month).   It
captures the Directory path,  The name of the object, size, etc.    in a
file.   You can do comparisions from capture date to capture date to see
what changed.

If the Object name has a period in it(ie   XXXXXX.YYY,   or MYPGM.EXE)
It  puts the .EXE (or whatever extension) in a separate field.   So, you
can run a query and say for example,   How many .EXE's are there in xxx
Directory.       or What is the total size that I have wrapped up in .DOC's
