Willie, if you know how to code SQL, you can write an SQL trigger which avoids the need for the sometimes cumbersome buffer. However, you may want to think about some method of notification other than a simple message. How about writing to a log file? Reference this manual from the Rochester ITSO. It has a chapter that specifically discusses SQL Triggers: Stored Procedures and Triggers on DB2 Universal Database for iSeries (SG24-6503-00) Bob Bob Slaney/Atlanta/IBM@xxxxx (Lotus Notes) Internet id: rjslaney@xxxxxxxxxx Tieline 445-7374 Direct (770)835-7374 FAX tie 445-7579 Direct (770)835-7579 AMS Americas Learning Development iSeries Course Materials Developer IBM Corp. 3200 Windy Hill Road Atlanta, GA 30339 WG07C13 "Willie J.

So, I cannot call a CL from a 'trigger'. The 'trigger' program must call an RPG program. Which then in turn sends the message. This seams like a long way around. I have not done a RPGLE program. Do you have an example of one that you could send me to look at. Thanks, Willie Moore wjmoore@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -----Original Message----- From: Jansen, Larry [mailto:ljansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, August 27, 2003 8:49 AM To: 'RPG programming on the AS400 / iSeries' Subject: RE: trigger error help The program being called has to receive two parameters, the trigger buffer and the trigger buffer length. The trigger buffer contains control information and the before and/or after images of the record being processed. It is variable in length, because it depends on the length of the record and the trigger event. The trigger buffer length is the length of the buffer in binary, 9 long with 0 decimal positions. So, you probably need to have the trigger program written in a higher-level language (RPGLE), and include these parameters. Good luck!

Moore [mailto:WJMoore@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, August 27, 2003 11:25 AM To: rpg400-l@xxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: trigger error help I am having trouble with a 'trigger' program. This is my first try. Here is what I am trying to do. I have a physical file (slitmtot) that when a record is added a CL program is called. The CL notifies QC that a record has been entered. Enclosed is a copy of the trigger and CL. I am getting the following error: CPF502B, with an error code of 2 = *after *insert trigger. I did CHGJOB LOG(4 0 0 *SECLVL) and ran job. The error was happening at the write statement (RMAJOBNO), and that there is a Data Decimal Error. I am not passing any data to the program that the trigger is calling. If I remove the trigger, the program runs fine. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Willie Moore California Fine Wire, Co.
