Description:
in column design view, 'datatype' does not auto-complete common datatype names.

Autocompleting saves valuable time and enables quick definition (ie: typing 'va' pre-fills in varchar() and places your cursor between ( and ), thus allowing you to finish the definition.

How to repeat:
n/a

Suggested fix:
see above

There is no auto-completion yet.

You can get the type to complete in Windwos by using the down key in the type combobox. Apparently it's how that works in Windows
