Dynamic List problems

Hi all,

I'm having some trouble with some dynamic lists not "dynamic-ing" as they ought to. Some of them work, but some do not: I seem to be seeing it when I have a series of lists that should be updating each other, eg:

list 1 has criteria for various giving years,
list 2 is "has list 1" plus some other giving in the "OR" section,
list 3 is "has list 2" plus yet more criteria in the "OR" section.

The idea is that I should be able to pull list 3 and it should give me an updated count from lists 1 and 2, but when I run list 3 the numbers don't change based on edits to list 1 or 2.  If I manually regenerate list 1 or 2, then those updated numbers will pull into list 3.  I haven't had time to nail it down in more detail, as I'm focusing on getting these to work so I can run my renewals for this month.

We're down an IT person right now, so I thought I'd post something here real quick: does anyone know of any obvious user errors or setup issues that would cause this?  Else we'll escalate to Tessitura help. 

Thanks, all!

    Oh, I'm SO glad it's not just me!  I'm on several deadlines this week, but will call you next week...or, if you're going to the conference, perhaps we can chat there!  Tessitura lab time, anyone?
