I have been unable to get a checkbox to default to being checked. I changed the Default Value property of the subform's checkbox field and of the record source table to 1 or true/yes. None of this changes the display when I open the subform on a tab from the main form. I'm using Access 2000.

What am I missing?

Thanks...
 
Are you talking about existing data?

Don't forget that changing the default value of a field only affects NEW records.

Try setting the default value in the table instead of on the form.

Thanks your responses. The problem turned out to be that there was code assigning a value to this particular check box. I just missed it during my first couple of searches.

Thanks, again!
