Re: 2 b4 update triggers, what is fire sequence?

Like I said I can't modify one of the triggers because it came with a COTS package and upgrades of the package will overwrite it. I know the docs say the trigger firing is not necessarily in a particular order, BUT unless you're going to tell me that they're intentionally randomizing it there has to be a way to figure it out.
