Find that reduces choices as you type...?

[blackberry]

Is it possible to do a find that works like the the "Search" does in Address Book? In other words- as you type in a field FMP narrows down the available choices with each subsequent letter. I believe this works somewhat in a pop-up text box, but was hopeing to get it to work without the pop-up. Thanks!!!

What you want to do is called Clairvoyance or Type Ahead and FileMaker does not have this feature natively. There are some workarounds or tip files out there that show how to do this. You can either do a search at www.fmfiles.com for Clairvoyance or Type Ahead or look at this URL for Type Ahead.
