The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

Generally, my rule of thumb for whether it's a good idea to use a
trigger for a given problem is to apply these questions:
1. Is it a side-effect (or a conditional veto, or an integrity check)
that needs to happen WHENEVER the file gets changed in a particular way,
REGARDLESS of how, who, or with what application?
2. Is it something that can happen quickly?
Which is to say, I've written a recursive descent parser for a simple
scripting language, in ILE RPG (the scanner is in ILE C), that runs as a
trigger without causing more than a slight performance hit. And I
routinely write trigger programs to cause the database in one of our
applications to track changes in the database of some other application.
