We are experiencing a rather annoying issue with the lookups.  What happens is that the user will search for a string first, then when it hasnt returned anything they will delete the search string one char at a time, resulting in subsequent searches and eventually, searching for nothing.  Eg;

 User Types:     Result:

Smith               No Result
Deletes 'h'        Searches on 'Smit'
Deletes 't'        Searches on 'Smi'

and so on until they have deleted all characters and it searches for nothing ie a blank search.  Is there any way of stopping this??

Fire the user or teach them how you think they should execute THEIR search....often times it's simply showing them a better way to do a search......Contains vs Starts With vs Equals......

I was hoping for a more elegant solution!   You wouldnt belive the amount of times I've told them, they just keep doing it..
