Good morning, everyone. I have a question the about the auto complete feature of Filemaker 9 Advanced. Is there any way possible to have the auto complete feature work with a drop down list that is tied to a value list and be able to click on the arrow and choose from a list of items. Here's an example.

If I'm looking for all items relating to "Transmission" If I type the letters "tr" the autofill fills in "tracking bar" with "acking bar" highlighted. If I click on my drop down list it lists everything that starts with "tr" and I can choose from anything on the list. The problem is that the "tr" is no longer highligted and if I choose "transmission" from the list it ends up as "trtransmission" in the field.

Is there any way of keeping all the letters in the field highlighted so that when you click on an entry it will replace all the text?

I hope that I explained that OK. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
