This is the second time that tis has happend. But here is what happens. I create a new fied in an existing grid, save & close the manage field box. I go to close the grid to reopen & refresh it but do not actually reopen it. The grid tab shrinks to the size of the grid icon losing the grid name & stays that way. Status indicates that it is updating the column.
If I click on the grid that used to be the grid in question, it is completely empty. Closing & reopening IQ gives me back the grid, but all the fields are gone. I can recover by simply restoring the shown fields.
I think that maybe I did not wait long enough for the field to be updated before closing the grid, though I cannot say for sure. Screen shots included.
Thanks, al
