Default in Combo box

[dimpie]

I have a form with a filed that is combo box.

Row Type - Table/Query
Row Source - A Query

I would like to assign a default value to this field. (the value that i will
be assigning is a part of the list) or if it could show the first value in
the list as default that would be fine too.

How do assign a default to this field?

In the combo box Data properties, assign your value to the the property:
"Default Value"

Remember that the Default Value for a control is only used when creating new
records. Also, remember that the default value for the combo box is the
value that the control set set to (the Bound Column), which is not
necessarily the same as what the user sees (the "bound column" may be hidden)
- you have to use that bound value as a default.
