I'm sorry to hear about your migration problems.
But I'm glad to be able to deny your conclusion above: the system will
search on any partial match, both on the customer number or on the customer
name. So, there's no need to spell them quite exactly.
Also, if you want the drop downs back, there's a setting in the System ->
Defaults screen (third item below the currency settings input box; "Max per
dropdown"). If you enter 99999 into that (assuming you don't have that many
customers), you'll be presented the selection list you're used to.

I hope the your reconfigured sytem behaves as expected again!
Bye,
Erik.
