ALL-IN-1 3.0
My customer wants to know how to quickly determine the highest docnum
in each drawer.
This would then tell him how many documents had not been read since the
previous time he looked. He does not want to scan the whole drawer each
time for perfomance reasons. Are we right in assuming CAB_CREATE has an
internal counter to know what docnum to use or is there an accessible
counter that we could use ?
Thanks,
Clive

Assuming it isn't a drawer used for mail, then this will do it:
for first cab$ with .fixer geq "000000" do get #x = .docnum
Will put the required docnum into #x
It gets a bit more complicated if it's a drawer used for mail and has an INBOX.
In that case try this:
for first cab$ with .fixer geq "000000" and .folder nes "INBOX" do -
get #x = .docnum
for cab$ with .folder eqs "INBOX" do get #y = .docnum
.if #y gtr #x then get #x = #y
Again, the docnum you want is in #x.
