[AccessD] Creating default false in yes/no field

Yes, it will Rocky.  In that sense, it is no different from the default

When the new record is updated to the table, if the default of the control
if false, I'm thinking that the default of the control will set the value of
the field in the record to false.

Remember, though, that's for display purposes.  If you want the value to get
into a new record, you need to use the field default.
