The table I have it referencing back to has entries such as Brazil | Hffmn_Brdg | N_CR_500E. When typing in Br and hitting enter it brings up the dropdown for me to choose and the names are listed correctly there. But when I choose something like above it abbreviates to only what is before the |. So it enters Brazil. I am aware that | is not really a good choice to have in a field but I need to know if other symbols will have the same effect.

could you send me a sample dataset? I have a feeling there is a bug as we are probably using | internally

Absolutely. I thought the | was a definite issue as I know it is how
several methods are populated.

The data is currently in a standalone table so I just exported a selection
and created a dbf. Let me know if you need anything else. Also if you paste
this email into that Issue could you please remove all of my contact info?
I noticed that was happening in the others we had worked on and removed
myself. Prefer not to have all of that sitting out there.

Thanks

Populates the value correctly. Tested with other characters such as !@#$%^&*()_+ as well.
