Do u mean that we should maintain the text files manually?I would suggest that you manually enter a fixed-format text that you can parse out of the text, such as "Job Created on yyyy-mm-dd" to store that information.
thanks in advance.

good guess, and it might work most of the but it isn't correct. The DATA.30 and OVER.30 are components of a type 30 hashed file, and if entries are made to the table that cause an overflow the OVER.30 file will be modified as well so your method doesn't guarantee a good answer.
Also, the problem is that the original poster wanted to promote a job from one environment to another and in that case your method would also show the date/time of the job being created in the new project.
