Does someone have a brilliant suggestion to this scenario ???
Have a file (DB2/400) which receives records from programs in an ERP system,
but also from other servers in the neighborhood using ODBC.
The file has a keyfield (RecID - 9,0). This keyfield should ofcause be unique, but
when I receive records into the file via ODBC I have no control and right now I only
receive *zeros in the field (RecID).
Then I thought... create a trigger program (RPG or SQL) and fire it *BEFORE an
ADD to the file. Get the next number (last used RecID + 1) and return this value
and initialize RecID with the new number !!!!
But I'm not sure this can be done.... seem to remember a trigger program cannot
return any parameters ??? !!!
Any comments or ideas ????
Btw: I haven't worked with triggers before ;-)
Regards,
Leif
