Chuck,

Thanks for correcting me. I'd overlooked that.

Use the information from a DSPFD for member

If you're looking solely for when the last record

of a

file was written (not any specific record) then

maybe

you could use DSPOBJD on the file and check the

change

date (in an outfile fields ODLCEN, ODLDAT &

ODLTIM).

Of course if records in the file are modified

after

they are written then you will only get the date &
time of the last update.
