At the bottom you'll see the time and date of the last change, but not
necessarily the last record added. If the file is an SQL table, you can have
a timestamp column to show you the last activity on a record.

Subject: when was the last modification to a files data?

Hi,

Have a file produced by an overnight job J from a file PF1. Its
records should correspond with a report generated in overnight job K,
also from the file PF1. But they don't. There are several other jobs
that run between jobs J and K. I'm pretty sure that PF1 is not the
same when job K runs as it was in job J. Does DSPFD have any way of
telling when the last record was added or modified in PF1?
Thanks
