What dictates what a user's default operator is on the filter row? Some of our users have a default operator of "Contains" while others have a default of "Starts With." Ideally they would all be defaulted to "Contains."
There is an install parameter called 'QUICKDEF' that is set to which you have set to 'Contains'. The reason some of you users are not seeing this is due to a checkbox on the user screen that is hidden by default. The checkbox I am referring to is 'Allow Contains Search' and if this is not checked the user will not have the option of contains therefore the default for those users will be 'Starts With'.
