Typing into a value list field

I've been seaching the forums but I can't seem to find the answer to this.

I have a value list which contains vendor numbers and vendor names sorted by the second field, vendor name. The user tabs to the vendor number field and gets the pop-up list. In version 6 if the user typed an 'M' the list would scroll to the vendor names that started with 'M' now in version 7 the list scrolls only scrolls if you type in a vendor number. I hope I explained that well enough. I don't know if this is a bug or if FM did this intentionally. I hope someone can help me out with this because it's a real problem for me.

Thanks!

I've just found this one too. Do you think there is any chance of it being fixed or do we have to go for work rounds?

I believe it should be fixed in the next revision. But don't quote me on that.

It seems you were right. The latest updater 7.0v3 which is now available on the filemker web site solves this problem and some others.
