I have a file of transactions with the timestamps at the end of each. I want the transactions after a particular time. If the time matches a timestamp in the file, fine, I can start with the next record. If it doesn't, though, once I find the next timestamp, I need the whole transaction that preceded it. I suppose I could just read the whole file backwards, but I'd be happier reading only one transaction at a time. I'm thinking I could use |BUFFER 1| to delay the contents of the transaction until the timestamp arrives, but timing the insertion of my target timestamp gets awfully messy. Anybody have a simpler idea before I dig into that?
