    Checking file update status


    I update a file once per day at 8pm
    I only update the file on weekdays
    I want to check if the file update worked the night before.
    At 8am the following day the file will be 12 hours old
    On Monday morning the file will be > 2 days old but this is expected.

    in my item I use vfs.file.time(<myfilename>,modify)

    In my trigger I could have (pseudocode)

    (is today monday and is file age > 60hours) or (is today >= tues and today <= friday and is file age > 12h)

    which i think looks like this

    ( dayofweek()=1 and fuzzytime(<myfilename>,60h)=0 ) or ( dayofweek()>=2 and dayofweek() <=5 and fuzzytime(<myfilename>,12h)=0 )

    but is there a more elegant way of doing a file age check that accounts for weekends?

    Thanks in anticipation
