Here's the scenario with all the gory details:
        MASTR_FILE is a file of parking tickets.  The agency responsible for 
            "parking enforcement" is embarking on a campaign where parking
            ticket scofflaws would receive Default Judgments for unpaid
parking
            tickets.  Before we can file a Default Judgment, we must send
the
            individual a Default Judgment Notice.  To "qualify" to receive
a 
            Default Judgment Notice, an individual  would have to have
atleast 
            5 unpaid parking tickets.  Once a Default Judgment Notice is
sent,
           an individual has 30 days to pay the tickets or a Default
Judgment 
           is filed in the county clerk's office.  My problem occurs when
someone 
           with 5 unpaid tickets receives a Notice, and proceeds to pay off
1 of the 
           parking tickets.  When a tickets paid, it's status changes from
a 'N' to a '0'.
           This individual would then have 4 unpaid tickets, so they would
not be 
           eligible to receive a Default Judgment.  I then need to change
the status 
           of the other 4 tickets from 'N' to whatever it was before the
Default Judgment 
           Notice was sent.

wondered the same thing, and came up with several scenarios.  One might be
a mailing list where a person has a summer, winter, school, europen,
shipping, and e-mail address record, and then dies.
