Why? Do you use nextval() for that id? In that case I think you immediately delete the record after inserting it, as nextval gets called again in the delete statement, and thus id <> NEW.id. You should probably use a trigger (a before one maybe) instead of a rule. -- Alban Hertroys alban@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx magproductions b.v.
