      It returns a Boolean value if a check for "errors" did not find any:

      function DoSave(subact, context) {
        if (!subact) {
          var subact = "save"
        }
        var ruleResults = new Object();
        RecalcDependents(kFormSaved, 0, null, ruleResults);
        if (MissingRequiredFields()) {
          return
        }
        if (ruleResults.abortSave) {
          DisplayAbortMsg(ruleResults);
          return
        }
        var maxGeID = 0;
        for (var GeID in gGeData) {
          if (!GE_validate(gGeData[GeID])) {
            return
          }
          maxGeID = Max(maxGeID, GeID)
        }
        var ruleResults = new Object();
        RecalcDependents(kFormSavedPostCheck, 0, null, ruleResults);
        var prePostValues = (ruleResults.oldVals ? CopyObject(ruleResults.oldVals) : null);
        if (ruleResults.abortSave) {
          RestorePrevalValues(prePostValues);
          DisplayAbortMsg(ruleResults);
          return
        }
        var success = CheckForErrorsAndSaveIfNone(subact, context, maxGeID);
        if (!success) {
          RestorePrevalValues(prePostValues)
        }
        return success
      }
      That said I would stay away from using it. When customizing a QuickBase authored page with your own script it is a better practice to emulate user input rather than muck around with their code.
