No luck with that. Time code shown in database = 1171293946 timecode called by using the following global $user; $account = user_load(array((is_numeric($user->uid) ? 'uid' : 'name') => $user->uid, 'status' => 1)); print $account-access; 1171294179 You see the trick here is that to see the printed time you have to login. Since there is no last login stored the $object->access pulls thle only thing available. What I have done in my module is store the time in another field so I have lastaccess and newaccess. Newacess is being constanly updated by the user object. But lastaccess only accepts a value from newaccess. When newaccess is updated the old value goes to lastaccess which is what I want to be able to use. I could not find anything in the present core that does this.

I can imagine the the global user might not have the info in it... but if you do user_load(array('uid' => $user->uid)); // <-- $user is global user, you might get a hold of it. Just shooting from the hip.

Well, I spent sunday evening being sick and looking over last access functionality historically as per Bérs advice. I looked back to version 4.4 to 4.7.4. a found surprisingly that Drupal has never really had a last access functionality. It has had calculation code to gather such information but nothing definative. Strangely enough there has not been too much call for this information so no one has noticed.

This is all nonsense. The user admin page shows you last access for each user. And that number is accurate, so we must be collecting that info somewhere. Furthermore, access is easily available for all modules in the standard $user object.

Fire up your debugger and you will see the writing of this infomation in sess_write().
