Is there a way for a combo box to show the 1st item in
the list automatically without the user having to click
the arrow on a blank box?

I'm assuming you're wanting this when you go to a new record. If so, set the
default value of the combo box to

[cboMyCombo].[Column](0,0)

Adjust the first 0 to be one less than the Bound Column property of the
combo box. The Bound Column property is one based and the Column property is
zero based.
 
Wayne, you are the best! I can't believe what a pain in
the *&! this default issue has been, but it works, and
now I'm done with this project!!!!

Thanks!
