RE: Updating the triggered record from the trigger program

[CWilt@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

Well mostly ;-)

To make a change to the record that caused the trigger to fire you must
update the "after record buffer" that is passed into the trigger program.
You _CAN_NOT_ use normal I/O to make the updates!!!!!!

Do you sense the importance of the above statement?  <grin>

Also, you need to specify ALWREPCHG(*YES) when you create the trigger.

HTH,

Charles
