Payee Problem trvlnmny 02-16-2007

I have just upgraded from Q 2004 to Q 2007 Basic. In my previous
version when I began to enter a Payees name in a register it would
give me a list of payees from the Memorized Transaction list with
similar names , I think this is called Quick Fill. When the one I
wanted reached the top I would hit enter and it would complete the
register fields with the data from a previous transaction but it would
not complete or enter the transaction.
With Q 2007 when I hit Enter after the the payee I want is selected
the register is completed with the data from a previous transaction
and the transaction is then completed.
How do I stop the transaction from being completed>
Thanks for any and all help.

Use the TAB key instead of hitting ENTER. The TAB takes you from field to
field (of a given transaction). ENTER is normally used to accept the
transaction into the register. That being said, you can override the
default behaviour of ENTER to function like TAB (through Quicken
preferences). That's probably what you had set in Q2004.

I'd recommend retraining yourself to use the TAB key - it's better, in my
opinion. After you've chosen one of the quick fill entries, press TAB to go
through the remaining fields of the transaction (filled by the quick fill
feature), override whatever (amount, memo, etc.) and then complete by
pressing ENTER. In this mode, you don't have to cycle through ALL the
fields to get the transaction accepted into the register.
