I am having great fun with the auto-complete ajax functionality. However one thing that I expected to easily find would be the ability to make a distinction between the "search" field and the inserted field.

As was posted in the PHP forum (but unanswered) - I am able to search on client name but cannot insert the ID - just the literal client name(in listbox parlance I suppose I am looking for the "bound" field).

Have I missed something or is it missing as a feature ?

Regards
Phil

I agree with you Phil

This is often a limitation of most Autocomplete's in that they cannod differentiate between a descriptive and an Index field.

Take Care

Hi there

Yes I have solved it by modifying a Ajax Autocomplete script

Basic the concept was that there was also a hidden field that was populated by the ID.

My example is in Javascript and a small about of ASp for the populating etc.

I can send this if it will be of help

Take care

Dave
