The "suggest wizard" is added by default to all database relation group fields. After a couple of characters have been typed into this field, an ajax based search starts and shows a list of records matching the search word.

The syntax for the search is: "multiple words" something, so you can enclose words you want to find next to each other in double quotes.

A set of options is available to configure search details.

Setting this property to true disables the suggest wizard.
