I’ve got several computed for display fields which are used to show data from hidden editable fields. The editable fields are updated nightly via an agent from an external data source.
While the data in the hidden fields is correct, the computed for display fields show the original data until the document is saved from the ui. At which time the correct data is instantly displayed.
Is there anything that can be done, say, in QueryOpen to make this annoyance go away?

Hi,
From DD help:
A computed-for-display field formula recalculates each time a user opens or saves a document.
So everything should be OK.
You can also check if there is no field with the same name as computed for display field on the document - that can cause some problems with refresh field value on open - I think.

Thanks - I think I’ve resolved the problem. The fields used to be editable so I’m now running a script to remove them from the documents.
