That's much cleaner, and I assume quicker as it's doing a single scan. I can't test this at the moment, but I assume this is addressing the single pass, and the clean, and not the returning of either first or last?
The main problem remaining, is the ability to return the last #M,M# (or nth if possible for future reference), as I want to show just the last modification to a file.
Furthermore, is there any way to contain the searching to within the top section of the file, between the /*H and H## ? as if there are many large files to document, it would make it much quicker.
Thanks for the help so far.

fbsql_result
FBSQL_RESULT(3) 1 FBSQL_RESULT(3)
fbsql_result - Get result data
SYNOPSIS
mixed fbsql_result (resource $result, [int $row], [mixed $field])
DESCRIPTION
Returns the contents of one cell from a FrontBase $result set.
When working on large result sets, you should consider using one of the functions that fetch an entire row (specified below). As these
functions return the contents of multiple cells in one function call, they're MUCH quicker than fbsql_result(3).
Calls to fbsql_result(3) should not be mixed with calls to other functions that deal with the result set.
PARAMETERS
o $
result -A result identifier returned by fbsql_query(3) or fbsql_db_query(3).
o $row
-
o $field
- Can be the field's offset, or the field's name, or the field's table dot field's name (tablename.fieldname). If the column name
has been aliased ('select foo as bar from...'), use the alias instead of the column name.
Note
Specifying a numeric offset for the field argument is much quicker than specifying a fieldname or tablename.fieldname argu-
ment.
RETURN VALUES
SEE ALSO
Recommended high-performance alternatives: fbsql_fetch_row(3), fbsql_fetch_array(3), fbsql_fetch_assoc(3), fbsql_fetch_object(3).
