Just tried to find those settings but couldn't - can you give me a clue (been
so long since playing with that area).

That said this is the area that needs a fix to optionally allow for all
archive file imports to have the file date updated by that of the newest file
within the archive other than that of file_id.diz and at the same time 
updating
the file database.  Had similar in Maximus.
