Datetime created?

You could do a cfdirectory, and then a query of query on the results
sorting the file names, or looping over them to parse out the "date"
part.  

It might make sense to store the location of the files, date they were
created, and who created them etc in a table in your db, to keep better
track of them.  Then if a network hiccup keeps the file from being
written, you still have a record in the table to account for...

Subject: Find last file.

I have an app that writes out a file that is named with consecutive
numbers, i.e. file01, file02, file04.  The numbers are actually based on
the date the file is written.  What I'm looking for is an easy way to
find the last file written, the one with the highest integer appended to
the file name.

Can anybody help my muddled mind?

TIA
