Re: File Update Trigger Program?

[eric.delong@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

     Sure, quick and dirty methods exist, but there's also a very nice, 
     well implemented, useful method supported by DB2 and OS400 called 
     database triggers. 
     
     ADDPFTRG
     
     Triggers do need to conform to certain design standards, though. 
     You can get most of the information you need to get started by 
     searching the MIDRANGE-L archives at WWW.MIDRANGE.COM. Trigger 
     questions come up quite regularly, and most of the answers you need 
     are already available.
     
     good luck.....

Is there a quick and dirty way to call a program when a physical file is
updated?

Any suggestions, or links would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in Advance
