501.0. "How to get the OLDEST file version ?" by PADKOA::COSTEUX (Le Plat Pays qui est le mien...) Mon Apr 21 1997 10:01

    Is there a 'simple' way to get the OLDEST version of a file (not the
    more recent one..). I've found some homey solutions but hope somebody
    has a better solution..
    
    Thanks for hint.

    It works in interactive mode but from a DCL command procedure ?

    Should be identical; What difference do you see?

    The difference is that I would like to get (in a symbol ?) this oldest
    version number.
