want more...

Folks:

OK, this is driving me a bit crazy.

The online help for the ADDPFTRG command says you can specify a 256
character trigger name if you surround it with double quotes. But I
haven't been able to do this.

Back in August, Chuck Pence mentioned ...

Given the catalog files limit SQL identifiers to 128 characters, I

suspect the reference to 258 may be an error;

Also, the SYSTRIGGER table allows 128 characters for a trigger name, so
I'm thinking Chuck is correct.

Can anyone create a trigger on a PF with a name longer than 128?

Any time I try to do so I get a CPD32E7 with RC 8.

Thanks!

I'm riding a metric century (100 km / 65 miles) in the American Diabetes

education,

advocacy, and awareness. You can make a tax deductible donation to my

amount is appreciated.

You can see where my donations come from by visiting my interactive

I may have diabetes, but diabetes doesn't have me!
