"What the heck good is a read trigger if.... "

I remember listening to a guy at CUDS at COMMON tell us he had somehow
(thru tricks that would be in Leif's land of expertise)  had implemented
READ Triggers
a few years ago  around V4Rsomething.    It was Ask the experts Night at
CUDS.
(Which BTW, is a GREAT Source of learning some really neat things that are
being done)

(Oh, ya, The guys from Rochester were impressed).

The reason he needed it was to  know "WHO" was accessing "WHAT"
information.

"Who is so interested in ......."     Fill In the Blank.      For his
company it was critical to know that
for certain tables.

It's one of those things that you rarely would need the
capability of  doing, but  if you do,  there is nothing else that will do
it for ya.

Hello, all:

Has anyone used the "native" *AFTER *READ triggers that were
introduced with V5R1?

I tried using one, but no matter if I change data in the "original"
buffer or the "new" buffer, it does not seem to matter; the actual
data from the file is ALWAYS (apparently) returned to the calling
program, regardless of what the read trigger does.

What the heck good is a read trigger if there is no way to alter
the data in the buffer?  I mean, after all, you can alter the data
in other cases, such as an Insert or Update trigger, right?

Thanks,

Mark S. Waterbury
