   I wanted to make a few suggestions for upcoming builds. If I have text input and I select the format of 'alpha' for it, I am then unable to enter any spaces in this field. I know a space isn't really an 'alpha' character, but if I have a name field and I only want alphabetic characters in this, what if the person's name is 'Mary Sue' or something similar? I notice the same thing for the alphanumeric format. I guess it's a trade off because there are probably situations where you definitely don't want a space to be entered, so I'm not sure what the possible solutions are.

   Also,
   For the Pre-Defined drop-down lists containing the US States, the District of Columbia is not included. I guess it isn't technically a state, but if I have this as a required answer, and someone lives there, anything they select will be incorrect. Also, it would be nice for this drop-down list to have a 'search' functionality. For example, if the focus is on that list and I type the letter 'M', it will jump to the states starting with the letter 'M'.

   Thanks

   I like the search functionality for the search function, not only for a dropdown box, but also for a search in a report with data list...

   Also, is there a currency format?

   I was curious whether v1.13 would address the 'search' feature of a drop-down list, as in my example with a list of states. Basically, my client is asking about typing the first letter of a State to automatically scroll to that group of states rather than scrolling through the whole list. I notice that a regular list seems to incorporate this feature, so I'm wondering whether I need to create a workaround or just wait for the new release.
   Thanks
