can't edit individual record
Hi all, For some obscure reason, I can't edit individually any record from my main list view anymore. The black loading screen appears, with the "Please Wait..." message, but the more I wait the less anything happens. Editing form simply never appears. Strangely enough, I'm able to "bulk edit" records (including records one by one). The form is also slow to load, but it works. Any suggestions? Cheers, D_

Formula updates triggered by?
When are form formulas updated? In other words, what triggers a formula update? 1. I know manually editing a record w/o a single field change will do it. 2. I've updated a record through deluge script and that worked on one form but not on another. Thanks for your help! -Stephen
