Automatically display default value in text box on form

Asked by usslindstrom in Access Forms

Tags: Microsoft, Access, 2003

Would anybody happen to know of a way that I can have a form automatically display the "Default Value" on some text boxes in a Form?

The default value works like a champ, but the values aren't displayed until part of the record is created.  I'd like to have the default value displayed as soon as the form is loaded, even if no other record data is present.

I know a quick workaround to this is to assign the default value in the table itself, versus inside the text box on the form, but that's not what I'm trying to accomplish here.

As always, everyone here is extremely helpful, and I'd like to thank you for your time assisting me.Start Free Trial
