Hi

This is very weird

In my table, i have a field called "client"

now in search page i setup this as a lookup field

looking at the same table and in the same field
In other words, i want to search the name of my client in the same table using a drop down menu
The weird thing is that in search page i don't get a drop-down menu

instead, i get a simple text
Anyone else having this problem or am i doing something completely wrong?

SOLVED

If you make a field a drop down BUT in search option the default option is "contains" id does not

work...BUT if you make the default option "equals" everything is OK

and i think its the right way

Yes, this is the way it is supposed to work. If you enable 'Contains' option you should be able to type in some text as opposed to selecting it from the list.
