I do this because I check for .html-files in a users homedirectory. In the Person-table the users shortname is stored. If this changes I check for .html-files in the .Afterpostevent. You see .html can be called both .html and .htm, so I check for the filename a post this... This is done by a global procedure, and it puts the table in edit mode and that how I did find the "error".

I base my souce on standard behaviour, so I don't see your point....
