Hi,

I was wondering if someone could please clarify this property for me.

Does this reflect the last time the TDBISamTable dataset was updated,
the table according to the relevant session, or the actual table on the
disk itself?

I'm testing this with a local application. I have tried modifying a
table in DBSYS while the application was running but the application
still seems to be pointing to the same original datetime stamp from
prior to me editing the table. Just wondering if I'm doing something
wrong my end, or whether I'm misunderstanding the property.

Thanks & Regards

Adam.

It's the table itself so even if you have multiple sessions (and/or
multiple apps) then they would detect the new timestamp (note that if
another sessions and/or app has the table open duing the change it might
need to do a refresh to see the updated timestamp

Hi Raul,

Thanks for that. I think I've found my problem. (Embarrassing mistake)
It would appear as though I should execute a TTable.Refresh command
before looking for the lastupdated property.

Once again, thanks for the reply, and have a great weekend!

Cheers

Adam.
