Default open file

when I choose open file, in the open window in some situations I can type in
the window certain characters and it automatically finds the file I'm looking
for by highlighting the file name (a name with any of the characters I type).
However, this does not work in all cases. Trying to determine if there are
settings to change so this functionality works regardless of the folder,
server share, etc that I'm looking for a specific file name. An example is
I'm looking in a specific folder for a file (where there are many files) that
has "409" in the file name. when I type "409" it locates the file with these
characters in the name and highlights the file in the list so all I have to
do is press enter or double click on the highlighted file name and the file
opens. This reduces the time spent in locating the file.
