wm.ln.dbDirectory:getFirstDatabase
This flow service returns the first database from a server or the local directory, using the file type specified. The returned database is closed. If the database is not opened only a subset of its methods are available. Each time this method is called, the database directory is reset and a new search is conducted. If template files are being searched, for example, a new call to getFirstDatabase with the dbTypeparameter set to DATABASE starts searching the directory from the beginning, this time for database files.
