Actually, I did use the onSaveNew and I do have AutoPopulatePK=True. I set the AutoPopulatePK in the afterInit. Should I place is somewhere else?

Is the new (real) pk available to me? If you are using AutoPopulatePK, the PK value should definitely have already been retrieved from the backend by the time that afterSave() fires. Also, if this action is only applicable when saving new records, the onSaveNew() method is the place for this code. -- Ed Leafe -- http://leafe.com -- http://dabodev.com [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/dabo-users Searchable Archives: http://leafe.com/archives/search/dabo-users This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/dabo-users/!&!AAAAAAAAAAAYAAAAAAAAAGnwNn52Lj1DjDRaSGJwREHCgAAAEAAAAD3GtC/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
