I made an interesting observation today on the design page. If you use the Add Step button inserting and utilizing a series of steps that you cannot use a save button within the pages of the middle steps or even at the beginning at step 1 of many. You can insert a save button on the intermediate step pages, but they do not not show up after build. You can only have a save button at the last step. OR I am using this feature wrongly in some manner? I would love to use steps, but want to save at each step instead of at the end only. Am I off base here?

I believe that is by design , otherwise you would have multiple half records which would probably result in syntax error or other errors. Steps are usually used for different areas of one record as far as I have used. Example Customer Info ( 1 ) , Product Info ( 2 ) , My Details (3) all resulting in one record. If I had saved after 2 I would have to update that record therefore negating the ADD page and resulting in an edit page.
