Apparently, the FOUND variable is set to false regardless of the outcome of 
the dynamic update statement. I placed a call to GET DIAGNOSTICS  var = 
ROW_COUNT. It returned 1.  Question is, was that the result of a direct 
update previously coded in the same trigger, or is that the result of the 
dynamic update statement performed with EXECUTE?
