adding a new record via a form

I have a form which uses the standard navigation bar in the lower left corner of the form so a user can scroll back and forth and hit the one with the * on it to add a new record.

I'm trying to make a clean-operating form.

The issue is:

1. There are checkboxes on the form. Whenever a user clicks the * button to adda new record, the checkboxes come up stateless (i.e. they are greyed out, neither checked or unchecked, that crazy in between limbo thing) By default I would like them to come up unchecked every time a new record populates the form. I've read through the help screens, but I can't seem to figure out which event to manipulate - I wish there were an "OnNewRecord" event. Can anyone give me a clue on how to accomplish this?

Have you tried setting their default value (either in table design &/or the control property) to false?

Ok - that'd be it. Thanks James How much more water would there be in the ocean if it weren't for sponges?
