Description Tommi Komulainen 2005-04-01 14:06:41 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
Applying an autofilter fails to filter out rows under certain circumstances. 
Seems like it's doing substring match instead of exact match.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Add a row reading 'foo'
2. Add another row reading 'non-foo'
3. Add autofilter for the column
4. Select 'foo' filter


Actual results:
Both 'foo' and 'non-foo' elements are show.

Expected results:
Only 'foo' elements are shown.

Does this happen every time?
Yes

There were a few issues here
- The ui was swapping 'beings with' and 'ends with'
- The filter was using 'contains' in place of equality.

Both are fixed for 1.5.2, and 1.4.4
