Jeroen, The feature is already there, if you insert a changed line without a date it will already be added: | --- | Modify SUCCEEDED: [aut-num] AS5417 | ***Warning: Date '20070508' added to changed: attribute 'marcoh at nl.demon.net' Regarding your other comment on backdating changes, keep in mind that a lot of people actually keep a list of changed attributes in an object to have some history of when people made changes. So you must be able to insert changed attributes with a date in the past. Changing that would mean people have to find a new way to maintain history or the database should get intelligent enough to copy history from the old object before replacing it.
