Any help with figuring out what the issue is here will be much appreciated. Thank you!

All Answers
Pages_Read__c = newContact.Pages_Read__c
Reading_Detail__c = newContact.Pages_Detail__c
Reader_Type__c = newContact.Reader_ID__c
Do you have any suggestions on how to auto-populate Contact_Name__c (Lookup field) within this trigger? The trigger saves but when I try to apply it, I receive an error stating that this required field is missing:
Error:Apex trigger createPages caused an unexpected exception, contact your administrator: createPages: execution of AfterUpdate caused by: System.DmlException: Insert failed. First exception on row 0; first error: REQUIRED_FIELD_MISSING, Required fields are missing: [Contact Name]: [Contact Name]: Trigger.createPages: line 10, column 1
Contact_Name__c = newContact.Name
should be
Contact_Name__c = newContact.Id
First ever apex trigger a success.
Thanks again!
