In the context of a trigger program, it means that the trigger program has caused a change in a file to which it is triggered. For example, if you have a single trigger program (assume it's script-driven) attached to files A and B, and a change to A has been scripted to cause a change to B. The change to B causes the recursive call to the trigger program. There isn't any need to "reset" the message; it simply indicates that the recursive call failed, which isn't a bad thing, if you're triggering AFTER the change goes through. -- James H. H.
