First of all, how does FTP insert a single row? I can see how ODBC, etc;
but FTP? FTP should be able to put a single row table up on your IBM i.
But would that table still include the trigger or would all definitions of
the table now be changed? Or does the (REPLACE option on ftp allow this?
One thing to consider is not adding a new row, nor updating this row after
it's written, but instead intercepting this row before it's written.
Triggers allow that. ADDPFTRG ... ALWREPCHG(*YES). That ALWREPCHG(*YES)
is the key to interception. Then you can take buffer of the row, before
it's written to disk, and modify the contents. Before IBM added "row
change timestamp" and other such capabilities to the database this was a
common use of triggers.
