>>>Thank you. I will try the same code. I tracked my problem to the fact that the command specified in the BeforeInsert never fires (I put some bogus field name but no error occurred). I even "bypassed" creating a SP and assigned value but still no luck. Puzzling ..

But the problem is that no matter what I do in the BeforeInsert(), the action is not reflected on the cursor. And since BeforeInsert() fires (I have a messagebox there) it means that the Insert action is fired by CA.. Right?

As Naomi said, you should call TABLEUPDATE(). That way you send the updates/inserts/deletes back to SQL Server.
