I have a dropdown in a access 07 Form which has a list of States.

I would like tjhe state of Washington to be the default state showing, yet
allowing the user to click the dropdown arrow to select another state. I
tried the Default option and typed 'Washington' in properties, but it doesn't
display it.

Is there a way?

Does your control display one column while holding the value of another? If
so the DefaultValue property must be for the bound column, not the displayed
one. Otherwise what you did should work.
