  Hi Rocky

  Everyone seems to forget your original question.
  The elegant solution to this is to use the Format property of the TextBox inserting the shadow text for the "format" for Null:

  @;"Enter activity"

  I could but then that would put that value into the record.  He just wants a
  'label' describing what should go into the field in case there no value
  there.  Some of these are bound combo boxes where the bound column is the
  Autonumber ID and the first column showing is some kind of descriptive data.
