[AccessD] An interesting "feature" in SQL Server

I always set them to 0 too, but I have a case in an Access 2003 adp where
the check box is getting checked as soon I start entering data in another
field for a new record.  I was hoping Anita had a link to the Microsoft fix
that I could look at.

When I use bit fields with Access I make the default 0 and then I don't have
to worry about it.
I deal with the 0 which makes it easy to control.

John,
I have stopped using bit fields as they play up on Access continous forms
when using tick boxes.  Microsoft has a patch but it doesn't always fix the
problem.
