I'm new at Access, and I've just made a combo box with Yes & No as the answers. However, I can't get it to give me those answers, it merely says -1. What am I forgetting to do? Any ideas?

Yes is equal to -1, and No is equal to 0. That's how Access Yes/No
fields are stored internally.

Try setting the Format property of the combo box to Yes/No.
 
Well, it was working correctly in the forms at first, and
then, I did something, no clue what, and it started
listing it as -1.
So anyhow, I changed it to text and it said "yes", I ended
up making it a checkbox instead of a dropdown box. But
thanks for your help, guys, I'll remember in the future if
I have problems with it again.
