Thanks in advance for any help.

This is what I am trying to emulate. On our old DB(topspeed) we can look up a customer by starting to type their name(in a box above a list view of customers). Now it does not complete the name for me, but a list below the enter box scrolls the customer with the closest match to the top of the list (does not change order). Then by pressing enter I would go to the data entry page for that customer. (kind of like typing a K and have the list scroll up to the first K customers)

I would like to do this in browse mode but that may not be possible? I am going to look at clairvoyance but many of our customers has similar names and it is easier to type the root of the name and then click of the actual customer.

I hope I am explaining this clearly.

Thanks.

I am looking for a way to do this same thing. It would be even better if there was a way for filemaker to complete what I type in the way a web browser does (it matches previous entrys). Is there a script or some other way to do this?
