The VGETFILEINFO intrinsic returns a four byte field [defined in Cobol as PIC S9(8) COMP] called "File Version Number" and described in the documentation as "A date/time stamp, recorded at last forms file compile". Does anyone know how to decode this field? * To join/leave the list, search archives, change list settings, * * etc., please visit http://raven.utc.edu/archives/hp3000-l.html *
