Well, I haven't tried it yet, but I don't believe it will. It will be the same connection in the same transaction. In other triggers, I've done something similiar by inserting a record into a special table called "override" and have other triggers that fire in the same transaction look for a record in that table in order to make a decision about what course of action to take. All the other triggers are able to see the record. I don't see this as being any different. After I try it, I'll let you know. Thanks for the input...
