RE: Record was Change

I mean Code Generation Tools (ie. CASE Tools) Like SYNON, LANSA etc....
I hope, If the program is hand-coded, that issue(Updation of Job stamp
without Real Update) Could be eliminated easily.

Not sure what TOOLS is? But,unfortunately, the programs that I was
referring to were straightforward, hand coded RPG.

Scott's trigger suggestion is good because it enforces consistency across
file usage.
