highlight entry on click

M

I'm designing a database in which the data entry person is a modified worker
who is not familiar with computers at all.

On the entry form, is there a way to highlight the default value on click,
so if she uses mouse, she doesn't have to double click to highlight the
existing value or use keyboard to delete it?

Thanks,
