Default Values?

I have been trying to create Template that will forward multiple task data to
my tasks monitoring system. The way it all works at the moment is I have a,
add custom task function. This allows the user to input anything he or she
likes, they write in the text boxes and input the new task outline, task name
and date deadline. Then there are Combo boxes that allow the user to input
the Company name for who the task is for. That works fine.

The Principal for my Task template, works on the same principal of my other
combo boxes. I created a table with the Task_Outline, Task_name and
Template_ID within it. Then I created this combo box in a form linked to the
Task_Monitoring Table. This way I could fix default values to the combo box’s
and make sure the same Task_Outline/task_Name infomation was written to the
correspodning place in the Task monitoring table.

The Problem I am having is that the information that is being written to the
table is the Template_ID, rather than the Task_Name and Task_outline. If I
remove the default value from the properties, and allow the user to select
their choice, it writes the Task_outline rather than the (Integer) Task_ID.

Does anyone know how I can fix this, so when the default value is selected,
the task_outline is written to the field rather than the template_ID?
