Hi Everyone,

another try to get some help...

I have severe problems with the incremental searching. Here are some
parts of the dfm file in a test application:

object IB_Connection1: TIB_Connection
SQLDialect = 3
Params.Strings = (
'PATH=U:\ITEC\Projects\ProPX\test\data\PROPX.GDB'
'USER NAME=SYSDBA'
'SQL DIALECT=3')
Left = 24
Top = 24
end

Nothing unusual about the connection object.

object IB_Query1: TIB_Query
DatabaseName = 'U:\ITEC\Projects\ProPX\test\data\PROPX.GDB'
IB_Connection = IB_Connection1
SQL.Strings = (
'SELECT *'
'FROM ASSAY')
ColorScheme = False
MasterSearchFlags = [msfOpenMasterOnOpen,
msfSearchAppliesToMasterOnly]
OrderingItemNo = 3
OrderingItems.Strings = (
'ASSAYID=ASSAYID;ASSAYID DESC'
'ASSAYNO=ASSAYNO;ASSAYNO DESC'
'NAME=NAME;NAME DESC'
'COLOR=COLOR;COLOR DESC'
'MOLWEIGHT=MOLWEIGHT;MOLWEIGHT DESC'
'IUFACTOR=IUFACTOR;IUFACTOR DESC')
OrderingLinks.Strings = (
'ASSAYID=1'
'ASSAYNO=2'
'NAME=3'
'COLOR=4'
'MOLWEIGHT=5'
'IUFACTOR=6')
SearchingLinks.Strings = (
'ASSAYID=ASSAYID'
'ASSAYNO=ASSAYNO'
'NAME=NAME'
'COLOR=COLOR'
'MOLWEIGHT=MOLWEIGHT'
'IUFACTOR=IUFACTOR')
BufferSynchroFlags = []
FetchWholeRows = True
Left = 64
Top = 24
end

The query is pretty simple, its ordering and searching links are well
defined (through the "load defaults" option). Ordering is set to be
based on the "NAME" field.

object IB_DataSource1: TIB_DataSource
Dataset = IB_Query1
Left = 104
Top = 24
end

Datasource, not much to say here.

object IB_Grid1: TIB_Grid
Left = 0
Top = 33
Width = 294
Height = 260
CustomGlyphsSupplied = []
DataSource = IB_DataSource1
Align = alClient
TabOrder = 0
end

Grid, nothing to say here as well.

object IB_IncSearch1: TIB_IncSearch
Left = 16
Top = 4
Width = 209
Height = 21
DataSource = IB_DataSource1
ReceiveFocus = False
SearchKeyByKey = True
TabOrder = 0
end

And search edit. Not much you can do wrong.

I think I followed all the instructions in the GSG and the result dfm
looks pretty much like what I expect.

However, running the application against my db with 530 items results
in the following strange behaviour:

(a) type "I" => item "IG/L Chain" is selected [ok]
(b) type "g" => item "IG/L Chain" remains selected, which is strange
because inc search should be case sensitive and there is an
item "IgA" below.
(c) type "A" => item "IgA" is selected [ok again]
(d) clear selection and type in "Y" => nothing happens, althogh
there is an item "Yeast"
(e) clear the selection and type "Hema" => selection jumps on
"HDL" although there is an item "Hematokrit"
(d) type backspace => selection jumps on "Hematokrit" [ok again]

PLEASE, does anyone have an idea what is wrong here?
