Updating portal results

The Setting:

A portal showing related records that, when a record suddenly no longer relates, refuses to update. Even when I refresh the window (in the script).

The Plot:

I add the following script step

Commit Records/Requests [Skip data entry validation; No dialog]

before the Refresh command (and made sure that the refresh flushed all the data).

The Denoument:

 It worked! Portal updates properly now. :-) How's that for a happy ending?
