Ummm... If you are going to give a reply like this, you should offer some alternative, or additional feedback, right? Obviously, my goal is to refresh the form because the user may have made changes outside of this form that now affect the result this was already showing, so I need to do an update. A fairly reasonable thing for the app to do, I think.

So, do you have some additional advice to achieve what I'm seeking.
