Dear List,

A different problem from the one I submitted a few minutes ago
To review: I have a "Department" field (field ID 1000000000), with choices 
listed in a "Department Form."  I want users to be able to either click on the 
Menu button and see all choices, or enter one or more leading letters and see 
the choices that begin with those letters.  (Eg, type in "Eco" and then see 
"Ecology" and "Economics" in the menu.)  The qualification for the search menu 
says:

            'Department' LIKE (( $1000000000$) +  "%" ) OR $1000000000$ = " "

That works, thanks to some good advice from the ARSList.

I also have a "Dept ID" field (field ID 565000194) with choices listed in a 
different field in the same "Department Form." The qualification in my search 
menu says:
'Dept ID' LIKE (($565000194$) + "%" ) OR $565000194$ = " "
This menu brings in every Dept ID  in the entire Department Form regardless of 
what I type in the field.
What am I doing wrong?
