Form Help

[Shawn]

Hi,
I've created a database using one table, and I have 5
different entry forms. One picks a form depending on the
Issue Type: CI, SC, PM, CM, or PN. I've used a list box
on every form, with only the Issue Type of the form
they've chosen. The problem is they have to manually
click the Issue Type every time to get it to carry on into
the table. Is there anyway to set it up where when they
pick the CI entry form it will automatically put CI into
the Issue Type field in the table?
Thank you for your help,
Shawn

If you have a seperate form for each issue type, why not
use a TextBox instead (on the List) and set the default
value to the appropriate issue?

Hope this helps!

Thank you,
I figured it was something easy that I was just
overlooking. Is there any way to lock this value so
someone can't change it?
Thanks,
Shawn
