Title: RE: Data base triggers

And be sure to specify ALWREPCHG(*YES) on the ADDPFTRG command.  Won't work without this.

Simple.  I do this exact thing, (I also post a user).  You get a
before and after buffer.  Modify the after buffer and you're done.

Subject:        Data base triggers




Is it possible to have a trigger program update the record whose update
triggered it without having it re-trigger itself infinitly?

I know that's an awfully long sentence so I'll try to give an example.
1.  A record is updated in a file
2.  The update triggers a program
3.  The trigger program updates a timestamp field, for example.

Would step 3 cause the trigger program to execute again?
