Yes (although it's actually the modification time stamp). > 2. Out of 20-30 files that are generated, some may actually be > different. So how do I checkin only those that changed?

Correct -- if you do a general commit, CVS will check the files that may have been modified to see if they were actually modified and only commit those that were actually modified. Usually, that also corrects the status, but doing an update or status will also correct the displayed status. -Larry Jones It's SUSIE! It's a GIRL!
