Refresh choices on document refresh
- Allow keyword synonyms - this option is checked by default and allows synonyms for the keywords in choice list fields. Use the vertical bar (|) so that the keyword synonym follows the keyword. Keyword synonyms are useful because if the keyword changes, any formula that references the synonym still works. You can also create short synonyms for long keywords (for example: Hardware Sales Division | HW).

- Look up names as each character is entered - Helps users fill in a name quickly. Designer looks up a match for the typed letters in the open Personal Address Book or the Domino Directory and either fills in the name or gives users a choice of matching names.
- Look up addresses on document refresh - (only for Names fields) Helps users add a complete e-mail address. If a user types an incomplete e-mail address (for example: Edith Martin) and then clicks F9 to refresh the document, the complete e-mail address is filled in (for example, Edith_Martin@edith.com). If the name entered in the field is not in the open Personal Address Book or the Domino Directory, a dialog box appears giving users the option to select from a list of similar names.
