Default unbound check box

Is there a setting for un-bound check boxes in
A2003 such that the form will open with the
check boxes shown with a white background?
As it is, the form opens with such boxes shown
with grayed backgrounds. If one then checks
and un-checks the boxes, they will then show
with white backgrounds.

The "white background" would indicate a No value.
Is that OK?
Set the control's default value property to:
0

Thanks Fred. Yes, it's my intent to have the text
box open with a No value. (I don't know why it
didn't occur to me to set the default property.)
Thanks again,
Bill
