A way to access Last Updated Time on any XML record in FogBugz

In my application I am accessing FOGBUGZ API in the form of XML to retrieve data. It is running fine. But Issue is that, we ever it start, it takes pull of whole data from starting point. Here I searched a lot on Internet, but i could not find any status log maintaining by FogBugz to check whether data is updated or not.

FogBugz URL ::

https://fogbugz.xxxx.in/api.asp?token=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx&cmd=search&=project:=306+type3A%22case%22cols=ixPersonAssignedTo,sPersonAssignedTo,ixFixFor,sFixFor,hrsElapsed,ixProject,sProject,dtDue,ixBug,ixBugEvent,sTitle,ixProject,ixArea,ixFixFor,ixCategory,ixPersonAssignedTo,ixPriority,dtDue,hrsCurrEst,sVersion,ixMailbox,listIntervals

Example of XML CODE

<case ixBug="22547" operations="edit,assign,resolve,reactivate,close,email,remind">
  <ixPersonAssignedTo>3</ixPersonAssignedTo>
  <sPersonAssignedTo>Person One</sPersonAssignedTo>
  <ixFixFor>1797</ixFixFor>
  <sFixFor>XXX</sFixFor>
  <hrsElapsed>2.17582988739014</hrsElapsed>
  <ixProject>306</ixProject>
  <sProject>Project XXX</sProject>
  <dtDue/>
  <ixBug>22547</ixBug>
  <sTitle>MiniReview</sTitle>
  <ixArea>3383</ixArea>
  <ixCategory>2</ixCategory>
  <ixPriority>6</ixPriority>
  <hrsCurrEst>2</hrsCurrEst>
  <sVersion>TF201105</sVersion>
  <ixMailbox>0</ixMailbox>
</case>

If you want to see if Case was updated, you can simply check ixBugEventLatest (don't forget to include it in cols list). This field increases whenever case is changed. For other lists (people, areas, ...) I don't think there is good way to see if they have been changed, other then downloading full lists again.

Update: another good source of "change" information is dtLastUpdated field, which contains date (UTC) of last change to the case.

Btw, you may have more luck getting good answer at http://fogbugz.stackexchange.com/
