Saving new record with defaults only

I'm programmatically valuing several default values in a form from fields in
a preceding form. Sometimes there is no other data entry required, but we
want the new record to be saved. Unfortunately, the record is NOT being
saved, because there is nothing to be saved when all you have is default
values. How can I force the save of the new record?

Set at least one of those controls equal to its default value. Then it will
save.
