I would like to use an API to retrieve the date & time the data in a physical file was last changed?

This would be the same date/time as CL command - RTVMBRD FILE(lib/file) CHGDATE(&VAR1) would return. (or DSPFD & bottom)

I can retrieve the date the object was created with using QDBRTVFD format 'FILD0100' or QUSRMBRD format 'MBRD0200', but I'm having trouble with the change date.

Thanks
Ron
