I'm hoping someone would be able to give me some help or point me in the right direction. You've probably all heard this before but I don't have any programming experience so if you could bare with me I will try hard to figure it out. I'm working with someone who knows more than I do though.
Just a little back story; I've set up a simple Flex viewer application where the general public can help update one of our datasets by leaving a request. The request data is stored in a versioned ArcSDE database. My next step is to set up a geoprocessing service that will run nightly and extract that day's requests by looking at a date field that the user has to fill in with each next request. I hit a snag with the "date" type field because ArcSDE automatically stores date and time together which interferes with a widget that we want to use (if anyone knows who to fix the date I would appreciate it!) Currently the users have to hand punch a date into (working on an automatic date function right now but that won't be ready till much later) a numeric field. Long story short, does anyone know if there is an internal date field that is automatically kept and updated by ArcServer when someone makes an edit to a versioned dataset? If so is it accessible? So far the hand punched date field is not useful for this purpose.
Thanks for the help everyone.
