And this makes perfect sense! People keep thinking of their 5250 application. If I have my library list just right and my adopted authority just right then this trigger behaves this way. But folks - the trigger has to work when some user - without a valid library list - or an existing program stack - updates the data using UPDDTA, Excel, etc. Which is why some triggers hardcode libraries. For example if I update FILEA and want to log to FILEB when something happens, even if they update the data with Excel - well let me tell you - excel has no easily maintainable library list and the odds are high that you didn't store FILEB in QSYS.

It is my understanding after several discussions with IBM, that trigger programs are treated as exit programs... at least from an authority adoption point of view. Therefore, adopted authority will not flow down to a trigger program. You have to define it to adopt authority specifically. Kenneth **************************************** Kenneth E.
