Working in a grid on a laptop, wanting to make sure that I have appropriate data entered in the columns in the current column set.  But I've got the columns resized too narrowly, can't see the column label.  At this point I think it would be really handy to have all the current columns.in a form.  I found that I can right-click the Grid tab > Manage Forms, which takes me the current grid in the Manage Forms dialog.  I can right-click that grid in the list and then Save Columns as Form.  Seems like it might be a good idea to have "Current Column Set" as a selectable form in the Properties

On my laptop, I added an item to my sndb database.  IQ wrote it to my OneDrive IQ sync folder.  (I use OneDrive rather than Dropbox because the free Dropbox plan limits you to a small number of connected devices, plus I do the $99 deal for MS Office + 1TB onedrive storage.)  On my desktop, OneDrive downloaded the laptop file from the sync folder.  But IQ on my desktop would not copy and reload the file from the sync folder.  Desktop IQ doesn't seem to recognize that there's been a data change, even though File > Properties shows that the laptop file has one more item than the desktop fil
