Thanks @AntrikshSharma as always. But the M code is little out of my league. The way I resolved this is : “Use the cross button on top. Come out and apply or close and apply.”
This works every time now. I think the query folding happens at the server by doing this trick. But I am still pissed that they don’t have any better way of doing it - without trickery.
Thanks,
Ritesh
