Michael, > So the idea was when a record is inserted to have the trigger program > CLEAR this field. You can do this, but *only* if you use a *BEFORE trigger with ALWREPCHG(*YES) to allow repeating changes (ie, changes to the buffer itself). By the time a *AFTER trigger is called, it is too late to have an effect. And the requirement to code ALWREPCHG(*YES) on the ADDPFTRG (or CHGPFTRG) ensures you only do this when you really intend to have buffer changes affect the underlying file. Doug
