Re: Object changed date different in 7.2 -or- 7.3

I think a save is the key. In both of my cases the files had been saved
since last changed.

From the help text.
For database files:
Indicates the date and time that the object was first
modified after a SAVLIB request. If the data is
changed again, the change is not reflected on the
DSPOBJD command until another SAVLIB request is
processed and the data is changed again. You can use
the Display File Description (DSPFD) command to show
the last change date and time value to find out when
each member of the file was modified.

I think we have some programs that basically do the same thing. I'll have
to go review them. It has always just worked because we basically save
every night.

I can't explain what you're seeing. All I can say is check out the IBM

doc I just

posted. It covers 6.1 thru 7.3.

Maybe check your journals and see if there's something else happening in
addition to the row operation.

What kind of change happens with your tables? Simple CRUD operations
don’t change the "Change date/time" on the object.

Yes they do in 7.1.

I still have access to the old 7.1 system via the console. I updated a

single

record in a file via UPDDTA, then changed that record back. The object
change date got changed.

Then I did the exact same thing to the exact same file on the 7.3 system.
The object change date did NOT get changed.

So 7.1 and 7.3 are different in that regard. No idea of 7.2 as we

skipped it

entirely.
