All I can offer is some anecdotal evidence. I tried using CL for format selector programs once. A format selector is like a trigger that doesn't do anything but receive the buffer, set an internal code value and exit. I was horrified to find that in addition to initializing and freeing automatic storage for every record, it was writing a message to the joblog that said it was terminating because it had reached the end of its code. I don't have any timings, but the overhead was prohibitive, and moving to RPG fixed the problem. Pete Hall pbhall@execpc.com http://www.execpc.com/~pbhall/
