Topher Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 (edited) This is just a little annoying thing that I don't know if I can fix but I thought I'd ask anyway. When I do a search on last name field (set to auto-completion) I'd like to hit "return" and have it perform the search instead of first selecting the auto-complete and then having to hit return again. I don't know if that's clear. Basically, if I don't type the entire last name before I hit return, I have to hit return twice. Does anyone have any ideas about this?

BobWeaver Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 One way to do this is to have two copies of the field, one superimposed over the other. Have the front one enabled for entry into the field for browse mode only, and the other for find mode only. Turn off the auto-complete option for the find mode version. You can use this same technique to have a field behave completely differently between find and browse mode. Examples are: - Fields that are popup menus in browse mode but standard text edit fields in find mode. - Fields that are popup menu in both modes, but have an "other" item in find mode but not browse mode.
