I understand that ALL-IN-1 has a name-search sequence that reads
PROFILE.DAT before NETWORK.DAT and stops the search whenever an exact
match is found.
Is there a way to force it to list all entries begining with the
substring instead of just the record in PROFILE.DAT when the match is
exact ? (It's a question by customer. Just want to confirm)
Eg: PROFILE.DAT NETWORKS.DAT

CHINGYUE CHINGYUE@A1@NODEA
CHINGYUE@A1@NODEB
AT EMC TO: CHINGYUE <cr>,
All three entries are listed instead of just CHINGYUE.

If they hit FIND instead of CR, a list of all matching entries will be displayed. This matches the way these keys work throughout ALL-IN-1, viz: CR -> I want to move on, so just give me the first match FIND -> I want to find what possible values there are Scott | |||||

So, presumably you could customize the CR key to do an OA$FLD_NEXT
before it does an OA$FLD_DONE. You might have to check the field name
for the last field on the form or something. There is a drawback to
this in that it goes against the UI design of the product, so people
might tend to expect it elsewhere, when it may not be practical.
