VID 0 for file download

Hey,
I am not sure if I am in the right place to post this but I think there my be a typo in the Managing File Appendix of the Quick Base API guide. 
It is said that in order to get the latest version of a file every time, the VID value should be set to 0 but after a bit of trying it seems that v0 returns the first version of the file while v (alone) returns the most recent version.
Not sure if I missed something there...
Cheers,
Adrien
