What if there is no more to type? Example: I enter ONG That is exactly what I want. The list includes Amanda Szongo, all possibities including words such as long, e.g., long term care. The highlighted entry is Amand Szongo so I cannot just hit tab. How do I move the cursor off the description ? I don't want to scroll through a list for something that is already in the field. I have not played with this or searched the documentation, so there may be something simple. For me it would help if the matching assumed that I was typing the first few characters. Dale
