AutoMagic Order Codes poll

#1

<Thought I sent something about this out already, but it doesn't appear
to be showing up on the list.>

I'm working on the next revision to AutoMagic, and one of the things I
was considering was to change the way orders are input. Currently, you
can either select from a drop-down list of order numbers, or just type
the number in directly, (if you happen to know it).

What I'm thinking of doing is expanding the order input box so that you
select from a drop-down list that includes both the order number AND the
text code. (ie; "520 - InfYour") This would make it easier to pick the
correct order from the list, but it also means you could NOT simply type
in the order number. You would either have to select the order from the
drop-down list, or type in the order number & text code in the exact
format shown.

So, the poll question is:

Would you rather leave AutoMagic's order input method the same, (3-digit
order), or expand order selection to include the text code?

* Expand order input to include text code. (Requires using drop-down
list)

* Leave it as it currently is. (Order number only - can just type in
order number)

The poll can be found at:

I appreciate any input.

Thanks,

I always type in the numbers rather than select them so I don't like this 'improvement'.
