We use plain old cron in AIX. If you get your korn shell initialization set right in the shell script you call U2 from you can do almost anything. BASIC will do anything cron won't. Let me know if you need more details... Kind of hard to type them out on a blackberry. On 6/13/11, Baker Hughes

I agree! Triggers must be globally cataloged, but they can CALL a locally/directly cataloged subroutine that does all the real work. Also remember to CLOSE your files in the trigger program or you might hit a max file limit (this might not be an issue if the OPENs are done in the 2nd
