Autocomplete valuelist prevents user from capitalizing
posted

I am having trouble with an autocomplete cell on my grid.

If I have values in the autocomplete list like:

apple
bannana

And you want to type 'Assign' the first letter gets forced to lower case.  If you have upper case values it's the same problem typing lower case.  This is a real problem as we want a list of lower case words in the valuelist but allow the user to override it by typing something else that is often a person's name which needs to be capitalized. 

I have no idea where to start to fix this?

    Hi,

    I don't see any way around this unless you turn of the AutoComplete. The user can go back and change the "A" to a capital after they have entered text that doesn't match, but typing in an "A" initially will always match to the item on the list and change the case.
