Todd- Your instinct was right... I would encourage you to check #1 again with the When-Create-Record trigger. It does fire in that case, and it will in all cases. One important caveat... if you created a KEY-CREREC trigger that did something *other* than create_record, then a record will not be created and the When-Create-Record trigger will not fire. Good Luck, Dave
