• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: Users of the DB2 Administration Tool for     *
  *                 z/OS who use the Generate (GEN) function     *
  *                 to generate a TRIGGER and the trigger has    *
  *                 the NEXT VALUE clause in the SQL-trigger     *
  *                 body.                                        *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The GEN function can loop during        *
  *                      processing when there is a TRIGGER      *
  *                      that has a NEXT VALUE clause.  For      *
  *                      example, CREATE TRIGGER >trigger-       *
  *                      name<                                   *

  *                      SELECT NEXT VALUE FOR                   *
  *                      >sequence-name<)                        *
  *                      ...                                     *
  *                      End                                     *
