I have a form that auto-populates off the query of a unique field number. The query works fine; the problem is the number, entered by the user as a known 7 or 8 digit number (with NO separators), it is entered and the query is initiated the number flashes back into the field with 'thousands' separator comas. In the list the number field type it 'single line text'. There are no comas in the numbers when viewed in the SharePoint List. Text Box properties Data Type is 'Text (string)'.
Something is happening as a results of initiating the 'auto-populate form field query' action that changes the whole non-separated number into a separated one.
