Thanks,
That will give me what I want. On thing I notice is that the search result
brings up anything found with the matching characters, not just something
that starts with what I type. I actually like that better than what I
planned, but if I wanted to limit it to just the starting characters of a
name field, is there a way to filter it that way?
