    I have a calculated field that calculates the days since a previous date:

    ($now- LAST TIME)/(24*3600)

    where LAST TIME is a date field.

    From the Forms screen in the iOS versions, I tap the name of the data base which lists all the records. But the calculated field does not refresh. The mac version has a refresh records list button which does this. Is there a way to do this in the iOS versions (iPhone and iPad) without visiting each record individually?

    Thanks.

    Hi Harry,

    Hmm… I should probably add a “pull to refresh” function on the records list screen to do this for the iOS version.

    For now, if you just edit the formula in some small way (even with a space character), then tap Save, it will recompute all the values for you. I know, it’s not as convenient as the Mac version though.

    Thanks,

    Brendan

    Thanks, Brendan. I’ll use that, but a pull to refresh would be great.
