I couldn't reproduce this. I created the tables and trigger and then
did:
regression=# insert into tabA values('id1','col1', 2, 32);
INSERT 154119 1
regression=# insert into tabB values(1,'id1','col1','col2');
INSERT 154120 1
regression=# select * from tabA;
id | acol1 | acol2 | acol3
----------------------------------+------------------------------------------+-------+-------
id1 | col1 | 2 | 33
(1 row)
regression=# insert into tabB values(2,'id1','col1','col2');
INSERT 154121 1
regression=# select * from tabA;
id | acol1 | acol2 | acol3
----------------------------------+------------------------------------------+-------+-------
id1 | col1 | 2 | 34
(1 row)
It looks fine to me ... what are you doing differently?
