Re: AW: Trigger weirdness with L-Date fields

Are the L-Fields formatted, i.e. is a date format specified in the DDS?
What Date Format is specified in the H-Specs of your trigger program.
I assume both formats must be identical.

The trigger program does not process (or even take notice of) the L-date fields in any way. As far as it's concerned, they're just completely unreferenced bytes in a buffer.

We copy the record image from the trigger buffer into an externally defined data structure, so that we can access the fields, a typical trigger program action.

But the same thing occurs whether we copy the DS back into the trigger buffer, or we comment out all code that puts anything back into the trigger buffer.
