On opening a form a Text box has a 0 in it I would like it to be blank. I
have 6 text boxes and only 1 has the problem.

Hi, Daza.
On opening a form a Text box has a 0 in it I would like it to be blank. I
have 6 text boxes and only 1 has the problem.

Determine the name of the field that the text box is bound to. Close the
form, then open the table it is bound to in Design View. Scroll down to the
field with the problem and select that field name with the mouse. Now look
in the lower part of the window, and you'll see the property, "Default
Value" if you have the "General" tab selected. Remove the 0 from the
Default Value Property and then save the table. Your form, when opened,
will no longer have that zero in that text box.

HTH.
