>>>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?

Did you set AutoUpdate property of the CA as in Boris sample? E.g. compare all properties of CA with the sample.
