My currency textboxes default to 0 appearing when entering a new record. The user then has to blank out the textbox before entering true data. Is there a way to eliminate this 0 and just show a blank text box? Or even better, have the textbox highlighted or selected upon entry, so that if there is data to be changed, user entry will automatically overlay the data instead of the user having to highlight the previous data and then enter the new?

thanks!
 
In the design view of the table see the default value of the field, remove the 0 from there.
