How to programatically access Statistics tab information

[Former Member]

Hello, As per the requirements, I'm supposed to save RPT files in database(data stream), How can I programatically fetch its Statics information from DB to know if file has been altered in Database(DB would be changed via some utility that would download the file, user would modify it and would again upload it to DB). By reading its Statics information from DB, I again want to download the file from DB to my local machine. Please help how can I achieve this.

Hello,

You can add an additional field that contains the date/time the rpt was uploaded so that you can keep track of which version you have. Additionally, you could use a naming convention to contain a date/time value. As for doing this programatically I would recomend cross posting this in the DEV forum.
