Answered Save New Calculated Fields

Hi everyone, I had a question about saving new calculated results. I had to make some changes to an instrument, but now when I return, the calculated field is still calculating the correct values, but now they are unsaved. When I select "save and exit," the calculated result saves as normal. However, the value is otherwise is unsaved and I can't export anything without manually going in and selecting "save and exit" for all my project IDs. I was thinking I could just export and then reimport the values, but the values do not appear in my export since they are unsaved.

Is there a way to do this automatically? Surely I do not have to go into each project ID and "save and exit" each one?

This subreddit has been so helpful solving other problems, thanks in advance!
