Thanks for your help James. The preference changes that you
suggested do prevent the undesired code completion problems that I
was describing, but they also restrict the functionality of the code
completion feature. For example, I don't get code completion
suggestions when typing in long variable outside of method calls and
member accesses. What I would like to do is still have the code
completion feature -suggesting- completions constantly, but only -
inserting- completions when I press the tab key, and not other keys
like space or double-quote. Is there no way to configure code
completion to behave like that?

Hey everyone. I am having a problem with code completion - Xcode is
a little to anxious to automatically complete words for me.

My Code Sense preferences are as follows:

Automatically Suggest: Always
Suggestion delay: 0.0 seconds
This is your problem. I'd suggest you set the suggestion delay to
something reasonable (like 0.5) and the Automatically Suggest
setting to On member call/access. Now Xcode won't automatically
start a suggestion until you begin typing a token. With the
settings you have, code completion is invoked instantly whenever it
possibly can.
The code completion mode it normally toggled by the Esc key. I
wouldn't trying changing the binding to the Tab key, unless you
just don't like using tabs.
