Description Boyd Kelly 2006-11-29 05:30:54 UTC
Please describe the problem:
When entering the transactions description of the Transfer Funds dialog, field will complete with text after typing a single character(if match exists).  
That first character will not appear as typed. When the next character is typed it will appear in front of the existing (found)text. The text will then always have to be erased or edited. Example:  If type "Transfer Funds" in the description field.  I will see:

"ransfer FundsToyota Loan - Payment" 

with the cursur between the sT.


Steps to reproduce:
1. Click on Transfer button
2. Fill in transaction Description
3. 


Actual results:
Autotext appears and is preceeded by text manually entered.

Expected results:
I expect that the auto text will be selected.  When I type a character that doesn't match that text, the auto text will 'auto erase'.

Does this happen every time?
Yes.
