Need a default value for a form

[Chris]

I have a form that has a field attached to a combo box. I
am entering over 60 entries on a form. Is there a way that
I can select a certain value so that it will automatically
come up each time I enter new information. In other
words,since I am going to enter the same value from the
drop down list can I temporarily set one as a default
instead of dropping down to that same value with each
entry. It would save alot of time and errors. Than You

In the properties of the combobox put the ID of the field you want to
default to. (that's assuming you have a table with ID, SomeName, etc. and
the combobox is using it as a control source).

Have you tried setting the combo box's DefaultValue property?

Hope That Helps
