TRIGGERS

[T.Bryant@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

I am using length notation for the trigger buffer in my program and am
getting unexpected results.
There is a blank gap between the 'Original record null byte map' and the
'New record' fields.
The information I have on trigger buffers does not identify this gap.
Thus far I have created two different trigger programs and this 'blank gap'
is 15 characters and 18 characters respectively.
What is this gap and why is it variable?

The following is the data structure for a file with 6 fields and a record
length of 24

TrgBuffer       DS
