Tab doesnt automatically correct dir names during Find-file |

i've recently (9th June 2009) installed Emacs 22.3.1
When i use C-x-f (find-file) command and try to complete a unique directory name
(say ~/Txt) by giving (~/tx) and then pressing TAB, it doesnt correct
(and complete) the case from 'tx' to 'Txt' although this is the only directory.
This is working perfectly in preinstalled (/usr/bin) Emacs 21.3.1.
