I have been creating a template for a task system I have
been creating. The Template gets some infomation from a
table in the form of a drop down menu's. What I want now
is to know how to make the form always display with empty
fields. I could do it with Macro's before, but I dont want
to use them. Somebody must know how to do that?

Also Does anyone know how I could make sure specific
infomation in the drop down menu is always displayed?

Never new about that nice 1!!!! Do you know how to make
values default? I looked at the Default value function in
the properties box, but I can make it do what I want. What
I want to do is have a specific value in the combo box
already when the form is displayed. How do you do that?

Sure. In the Default Value property of the combo box control, enter the
value you wish to be default. Remember that this corresponds though to the
Bound Column of the combo box, NOT necessarily what is displayed as specified
in the Column Widths property. If you created the combo box with the wizard,
and selected "Hide Key Column (recommended)", the Bound Column will be the
non-displaying key field, and what is displayed will be the next column.

So, for example, if you wanted a default Customer of "IBM Corporation" whose
primary key was 1014, enter 1014 in the Default Value property.
