Re: Triggers prevent requested operation -- RPG400-L

*Thanks Francis,*

*This is what I'll have to work out, after I figure out how Ops. is
performing the refresh, and after I decide if I really need the Triggers on
Development at all.*

We do the same thing. I use Extractor/400 to bring the files over from
production into a temporary library, but before I copy them back to the
development library from the temporary library, I disable the trigger.
After the copy completes, the trigger is re-enabled:

*Actually Simon's suggestion is the way I'll have to go, because I don't
want the Trigger to fire for every Delete of a Clear. It happens when
Ops.
does their weekly refresh of the file from Production to Development.
(Actually, now I'm wondering why I need the Triggers on Development at
all?) Still thinking!*
