    Thanks db_pdx 

     I do have an extra button to refresh my table.  This extra button confusing to the users.  Its not a natural UX action to click a Save button and then have to click an update button.  Save should do the updating.  The point of this is I should not need an extra button to refresh the ui after clicking a save button.

Same here, bummer.  I had hope for minute there ... ðŸ˜†

The problem is the TaksResult objects.  The XFSqlTableEditorSaveDataTaskResultTaskResult lacks these two properties needed for this to work:
XFSelectionChangedUIActionInfo? ModifiedSelectionChangedUIActionInfo { get; set; }
bool ChangeSelectionChangedNavigationInDashboard { get; set; }

The SQLTableEditor seems to be a one-off component in dashboards, like a brother from another mother.  It also uses a different TaskResult type than everything else.

Its not your exact requirement but... what about putting that first table in a pop-up dialog box via a button?  That way when you close the dialog you can have it trigger a refresh as buttons have 'Open Dialog, Apply Changes, and Refresh' as an option.
