Jay, I like your idea about the button and the textfield to help with the debug. I will try that. By the way, you mentioned that the code on the line that read … var users: Results? was incorrect. That was not my line of code. The cut & paste and preview function in the Realm forum actually changed my code. My code reads like this … var users: Results? Therefore your suggestion of … var personResults: Results? = nil except for the default value of nil. I will make that change but it seems similar to my code. If it is because I used the term users then I will change it to something that is unique for sure.
