Does the last modified date field have to have a specific name or is there an option to tell Xataface that this is the date field to use?

Many thanks

Use the timestamp=update directive in the fields.ini file.

e.g.

[my_field]

timestamp=update

Just make sure that the field allows null values.

But how does Xataface know that this is the field to use if I have more than one date field?

Thanks

You specify the timestamp parameter in the section for one particular field. In the example I gave above you would be using the [my_field] field.
