I created a global "Notes" field, but when edited from either the iPad or the host machine, the contents don't sync over the network. In all other ways, my app is functional. Surely there's a pretty straightforward answer?

EDIT: A little research has revealed that global contents are specific to single user's session. So now the question is how to make a global note sync across all devices. My guess is to create a table with one field, "Notes," and relate it to the table in my Dashboard layout containing the text box.

That would do it. Make the relationship between the Notes table and the current table a Catesian (X) relationship.

Hey, nice recovery.

Can you explain why you need that "global" notes field. Why not one note per record? There could will be record locking issues with one single note field to rule them all.

Because the field exists for the sole purpose of having one notes text box on the dashboard of my UI, for employees to jot down temporary notices to each other.
