In the FileMaker 10 Starter Solutions, there is frequent use of “Type Ahead” aka Clairvoyance. Why is this missing from FM Starting Point?

Normally, we added functionality to the system, but not in this case. Type ahead causes a performance drain that is very noticeable for medium sized data sets, when accessed over a Wide Area network or Internet connection. We expect a fair number of people to access FMSP, hosted at their offices, or at a Hosting company, and then accessing the database remotely. These people would be highly disappointed by the huge slow down of FileMaker when using “Type Ahead” features. So to prevent nasty phone calls and flaming emails, we dropped this capability out of FMSP. If you run FMSP as a single user, on your local computer, feel free to turn “Type Ahead” back on.
