I can't figure out how you got that button in the Contacts layout to say "Preview", when it seems to be a field object with a value of "CommonOne". Same applies to "Map". Help! Please!

This is a trick we use to cut down on calculated fields. We're showing the CommonOne field from a related table, but using number formating to format the field as boolean: showing the word "preview" if the value is not zero.

So, if there is a related address, you see the word "preview". If there is no related address (and no "1" in our related field) you see nothing.

Right-click on the field and select Number Format to change this.

Hope that helps.
