Data Entry - Addresses

Post by alanthwaite » 05 Nov 2007 11:01

In Property Dialogue / Events / Residence are the fields for 'Place' and 'Address'. Each box has a button with three dots. Clicking the 'Place' box button a list of all places previously entered appears and, if required, an address can be chosen for repetition - saving retyping. One would expect a similar action to occur when clicking the button in the 'Address' box - but it does not - all that appears is a blank box - so each recurrence of the same address has to be separately re-typed.
Is this by design or error?
Is there a solution?

Data Entry - Addresses

There is a wish list item for this.

The address is a 'note' style field, in that it can contain multiple lines, hence the pop up box.
