>>>Can someone please remind me how to easily show an empty value in an editbox on a form (not in a grid) when always in edit mode (the user simply tabs to the control or clicks in it to start entering a value) or "" when the real value REALLY IS null. (Nothing entered yet).

>>Could you set the value?
>>Editbox.Value=IIF(ISNULL(Editbox.value),'',Editbox.value)
