Or if you are on *nix something like

find /usr/ud/accounts/accountname/_PH_ -mtime +2 -exec rm -rf {} \;

deletes anything over 2 days old

Subject: Re: [U2] I-Type question in &PH&

UniData has the _PH_ file which is a DIR type file. There is the DIR()
function that will return a lot of information for you without the expense
of opening the file. Perhaps UniVerse has something similar.

See <http://www.pickwiki.com/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?GetOsInfo> for examples and
code on how to use it to get the OS date/time/size quickly and easily.

If you don't want to mess with the "nuances" of the &PH& ID you can call a
subroutine which does an OPENSEQ then uses STATUS to get the modification
date right from the file system.

You can also get elapsed time by subtracting that ID date-time stamp from
the os's date-time-modified stamp, which is when the job ended. (if the job
writes to the &PH& log as it ends.)
