Form and what shows on open

I have a form with a subform. On the form the user can change the current
record either by navigation buttons or a combobox. The thing is though is
when the form opens , it is on the first record and the combox box and
subform are populated. How can I make so the user has to select an item
first off the combobox before the main form has an actual item from the
record set.

Thank you for your help,

Steven
 
You could try opening the form in add mode instead of edit mode. This would
ready the form for adding a new record (which is blank). There is likely a
different way, but this came to mind.
