I'm using access 2003, and can find a listbox control and a combo box
control, but no a drop-down list box control. Is there one, or can you
make the combo box act like one? I basically don't want to be able to
type anything into it, and always want the default selected item to
appear in it at all times. Thanks,

David

There are only the two control types.

You can set the combo's Limit to List property to TRUE to prevent
typing new data in (typing *will* let the user select a value), and
you can set its DefaultValue property to make a default always appear.
