Format display in a yes/no field
"J_Goddard via AccessMonster.com" u37558@uwe wrote in message
news:8164a9a78a28c@uwe... Hi - If you want to see the fiels as Yes/No in table view, to to table design. For the field you want to change, under the Lookup tab, set Display Control to Text Box, and under the General tab, set the format to Yes/No. These are for A2000, but should work in A2007 (not tested - I don't have A2007) John, His problem is that it displays properly, but when he clicks in the textbox to edit he gets the values -1 and 0. This is the behavior that cannot be changed. -- Arvin Meyer, MCP, MVP http://www.datastrat.com http://www.mvps.org/access http://www.accessmvp.com

Format display in a yes/no field
Arvin,
That is indeed my problem. One would have thought that when Microsoft's testers were taking it through the dev stages that it would have irritated them as much as it does me, and presumably many end users...

Format display in a yes/no field
You might try using a combobox with a ValueList:
0;No;-1;Yes That should display properly. -- Arvin Meyer, MCP, MVP http://www.datastrat.com http://www.mvps.org/access http://www.accessmvp.com "efandango" wrote in message ...
