Hide first record

I have a form that has records selected by use of a combo box, but when I
first load the form and before the combo box value is selected, the form is
displaying the data from the first record in the table. How do I get the form
to load with no data visible until the combo box is used to select a record?

Thanks in advance.
 
You could try a couple of things. When the form opens, you can have it move
to a new record so all the fields are blank. Or, you could leave the form's
recordsource blank and then when the user chooses something from the combo
box, assign the recordsource to the form. I haven't tried the latter, but
use the former quite a bit.
