Doug - My apologies for stating the obvious questions: (1) is the pick item in a Type1/Type19 file? Or a hashed file? (2) if Type1/Type19, you can execute *NIX ls -l {pick_name} or Winxx - Explorer - {directory} - right click - Properties to get created/last update time (3) If in a hashed file,

Hi Doug, Is there a way in universe (10.1) to see the date a pick item was created/last modified? If this item is in a hashed file, the answer is no. You would have to add your own date/time modified field to handle this. If it is in a directory file (type 1 or 19), you can use the STATUS

Well, if it's a type 19 or type 1 file and it's a Unix-based system, you can shell out, cd to that directory, and an 'ls' of the item's details will show the last date/time it was modified. However, if you're talking about an every day, garden variety data file, no there isn't any way.

1. Consider saving the date with the record. 2. Some time ago, I remember that Jeff Fitzgerald (fitzlong.com) mentioned transaction logging functionality in U2. Info on transaction logging is in the IBM tech manuals. I have not used U2 transaction logging. --Bill --- u2-users

Doug, You described a system that builds VOC entries and procs; I assume the problem is that you're ending up with a bunch of temporary procs cluttering up your system. Why not (a) add the date to the NIGHT-JOBSport id, or (b) add lines to the proc to make it self-deleting (it should be

Doug Since it's only a single file you're looking at (VOC), here's a low impact way you could timestamp. This will log all changes to an index file, which you will need to clear down periodically grin: 1. Create a subroutine that will return a timestamp AND a checksum when listed, e.g.
