Hey,

would this take too much memory due to constant database scanning? If not, it would be great to have such an AutoComplete feature when entering a DVDs UPC. The respective title would probably turn up in a list before having to type in the whole UPC.

It's not that I'm lazy. It's just that it would be a nice feature.

It'd be pretty useless actually, because of the way UPCs are formulated. You'd probably have to type in all but the last 2 or 3 digits before the list would be a manageable length to browse through.

With three digits left, there could be as many as 100 UPCs possible (10x10 not counting the checkdigit), not to mention multiple localities.

You're most probably right about this.
