Re: Trigger problem

[rob@xxxxxxxxx]

Evidently IBM can sometimes do a good job of marketing.  I told my teenage
daughter that I work with Notes and she thought that was so cool.  (She has
never used Notes).  Maybe that's the trick.  Leave the marketing up to the
particular division.

Hi all,

Firstly, could anyone direct me to any meaningful help regarding triggers
(I'm
having a hassle trying to find help in v4r4 softcopy library).

Now the problem . . .
I have a trigger set *AFTER *INSERT and when another pgm writes a record to
the
pf, control is passed over to the trigger program and it seems to continue
to
write the same record over & over. We're at OS v4r4 and I noticed two extra
parms on the CL cmd ADDPFTRG pertaining to threading behaviour but I don't
think
my problem relates to these.

Any help would be appreciated.


On a lighter note, I was chatting to a person last Friday and he asked me
what I
did for a living. Given the recent subject matter on "IBM's re-branding", I
thought this was the perfect opportunity to use the new name so I answered
"I'm
a programmer on the iSeries400 platform". . . He looked at me dumfounded
and
with his face screwed up asked "what's that". This, I thought, was to be
expected seeing that it was only announced last week. Problem is, I used to
get
the same answer from the public at large when I told them I was a
programmer on
the AS/400 platform !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I suppose we'll see, in time, whether the re-branding/renaming is going to
make
it easier for me to explain what it is I do.


Regards
John.
