This should be a nice easy one for you lot.
I have got a Combo box, with its source as a value list - there are only two
options, AM and PM.
I want to set a default value in the box, depending on what the value for
the field was in the last record.
In other words I want to fill out a form, and select either AM or PM in the
list, then in the next record I want the AM/PM box to automatically take the
value that was last used.
Thanks

Use the AfterUpdate event procedure of the combo to set its DefaultValue
Private Sub cboAmPm_AfterUp date()
With Me.cboAmPm
If Not IsNul(.Value) Then
.DefaultValue = """" & .Value & """"
End If
End With
End Sub

I know this could be a dumb question, I just want to confirm that it
is faster to execute inserts, if a timestamp field is set to have a
default value, like DEFAULT CURRENT TIMESTAMP, and skip that column in
inserts, than to include explicit timestamps in the inserts and let
the DB insert them.
Thanks!
