Re: Use Trigger Program to Update Same File?

Mike,

>Can this be done? 

It can as of V3R2 or so, but originally changes to a buffer by a trigger program
were ignored by the system.  To keep programs from inadvertently changing the
contents, this behavior became the default.

All you need to do is add ALWREPCHG(*YES) to the trigger, and make sure it is a
*BEFORE time not *AFTER event trigger.  Allow repeating change defaults to *NO.
