Thanks!  That does appear to solve the delete problem.

What is the sequence of steps that my custom node module can perform  
to create nodes of another type (controlled by a different module)?   
I would like my custom module to cause 3 other "page" nodes to spring  
into existence (with body text that is programmatically generated)  
when my custom node is created.
