Ron, Just a couple of points: 1. A trigger runs in the same job as the process that causes it to fire.2. CL uses all automatic storage. Every time it's instantiated (each record), you have all the overhead of calling it, initializing the storage and then freeing it at exit. I tried that once with a format selector program and it was a major resource pig. 3. CL doesn't handle structures, so you need to substring the trigger buffer, and you need to be careful because the offsets to the data space can change between releases of the OS (and have done so.) 4. I've been using an RPG template to build triggers. Simple ones can be built in 10 min, and I've never had ANY issues, even between releases. It's on the net with complete destructions for use at http://www.pbhall.us/trigger.html
