Thanks for the response!
I am logged into Quick Base and on my respective "Enhancements" table in this case. My "button" is an upvote button. When I click on the upvote button, it edits the record, but then clicks into the record as well to see the deeper information.
Ideally, I could click the upvote button causing the edit, yet keeping the User on that same view/report, without navigating into the record

Then when clicked on your report it will edit the associated record(whatever row in the report) and do whatever you want then reload the page and hopefully you should be at the same spot on the report.
The post by Xavier Fan in there details how to do this. Better to link to a bunch of information than explain it here.

I do something similar and I also wrap the whole thing in another condition so when the button is clicked once it cannot be done again on that record. It sounds like you want it to be clicked many times but this is an option for another time that you can use.
