Can a workflow be fired when a new feature is created?

I have a need to have a column populated with a spatial lookup from another feature. This column needs to be populated when the feature is created. Is there a way to have the workflow fire off when a new feature is created? I have this same issue with a point feature and a polygon feature.

  Not from the default editing tools, but if you had a workflow that handled creating the new feature then you could cook the column population in the other dataset into it.

   

  If your data is in SQL Server, another option, which I've never tried before, could be to set up a trigger to calculate a field in one dataset when a record in a different dataset it created.

  I am running Oracle and we have a before-insert trigger running now. Problem is that it is really slow. Just looking for a faster an more efficient way to populate the column.
