 ~~Title: InsteadOf Trigger~~
-If you're an Oracle user, you'll know that it's possible to update views with insteadOf triggers. An insteadOf trigger will do the CRUD operation(s) and it will be called with new/changed values like any other trigger. It's like a procedure which does CRUD programmatically. It's a simple concept but not available in all databases.

 We'll use an insteadOf trigger to solve this problem.

-The first method allows inserting new contracts, because the cell editor won't check for existing contracts. The second method implements the insteadOf trigger.
+The first method allows inserting new contracts because the cell editor won't check for existing contracts. The second method implements the insteadOf trigger.
 The trigger itself checks if the contract ID is empty and creates a new contract in this case. The activity will be inserted with the new contract id. The eventInsteadOfUpdate is missing in our example, but it works the same way.
