Use the control type you want right from the start (Access 97/2000/2002)

Chances are you can save some steps when you add fields to a form. When you drag a field from the Field List and place it on a form, Access assigns a control type that makes sense based on the field type and properties. For instance, a Yes/No field is added as a check box, a number field is added as a text box, and a text field that uses a lookup is configured as a combo box. In most cases this is fine, but perhaps you'd rather use a different control type with a field, such as a list box instead of a combo box. Fortunately, you don't have to change the control type after the fact or bind data to a new control. Instead, simply select the control type you want to use on the Toolbox prior to dragging the field onto your form.
