Oops, you are quite right, I didn't mention the file type but I was referring to static hashed files (Types 2 to 18).
For example, the VOC in my test account is a type 3 file and only COUNT changes the timestamp, unless of course I write something to the file. LIST, SORT, SSELECT, HASH.TEST all have no effect on the timestamp.

If it is, this is "normal". I recall the first release of reliable dynamic files had the feature of disallowing access to users without 'read and write' permission...which wasn't actually documented anywhere...ouch! I think you will find 'LIST' and other 'read-only' commands has the same effect.

Has this always been the case? Why does a supposedly read-only operation like COUNT modify the timestamp but others such as LIST, SORT, etc. don't?
