dsum evaluating only the beginning of a string?

Hi,
I have notice something strange with the Dsum function
it is not comparing the full criteria but only the begining of it

for example:

name grade
a 1
b 2
c 3
d 4
abcd 5


criteria

name grade
a


dsum will give 6 (1 for "a "+ 5 for "abcd") and not the expect 1 for "a" only

is there a way around that?

Many thanks
Dan
