Set up a default in Combo Box to show when opening a form

[JuliaO]

I have a combo box which uses a table with No and Yes. I want the No to be
the default whenever I open the form. I have tried several default values
suggested in microsoft but none have worked.

Yes/No fields in Access are designated -1 for Yes and ) for No. So your combo
format needs to be set to number and then in your control source put
=IIF([yourfieldname]=-1,"Yes","No")

A common way to handle Yes/No is with a checkbox, rather than a combobox.
Is there a reason your application needs to use a combobox?
