inSmartsheet Product Feedback & Ideas

Hello-

This would be great-

a way for Smartsheet to search all words and numbers in the drop down list, not just the beginning of each option. For example, I have a very long list of hospitals that start with the site number followed by the site name: 301 ABC Hospital. This isn't convenient at all if the person (most people) using it doesn't know the site number. If I know the site number by memory (our organization has HUNDREDS), I can start typing the number and it will suggest it for you, but if you start typing ABC...it will NOT recognize it at all. In my case, it deceives the whole purpose of adding a dropdown list as you would have to scroll through the whole dropdown until you find the location your searching for rather than just typing anything that's in the list.

Thank you-
