The combo box is based on a query that lists departure points for a 
tour bus based on the postcode of the client. It lists the options by 
most popular to least popular. At the moment it starts off with a 
blank text box and I want it to show the most popular as a default. 
The combo works fine as far as listing the options in the right order 
- just leaves it blank until a choice is made.

Hope this makes more sense.
