The next time you get updates, you should use the date that you last requested updates. For example, if you wanted to get weekly data updates: On 2008-11-01 -> dfclient.exe -get:baseline -recordspath:c:\targetdir On 2008-11-08 -> dfclient.exe -get:records -recordspath:c:\targetdir -recordschangedsince:2008-10-30 On 2008-11-15 -> dfclient.exe -get:records -recordspath:c:\targetdir -recordschangedsince:2008-11-08 When you get updates, the DFClient will create files that are prefixed with “CH_” in the targetdir that contain the updated data.
