Greetings to all my forum buddies!

I know this is a newbie question, but I don't know how to do this in vbscript.

I have a pulldown menu in an edit form. The form calls a recordset and puts the records in their corresponding boxes. I want the pulldown menu, when passed the value, to default to that value. How do I do that with out losing the options in the pull down.

I hope this doesn't sound confusing. Thanks in advance.
