LUPDATE()


Syntax:     LUPDATE()

Purpose:    To determine the date the database file in the current work
            area was last modified and CLOSEd.

Returns:    A date value.

            LUPDATE() returns the date of change of the current database
            file.  If there is no database file in USE in the current
            work area, LUPDATE() returns a blank date.  Note that the
            last date of change is not reflected until the database file
            is CLOSEd.

Library:    EXTEND.LIB
