Default value on a drop down menu
I have a form that I use to track purchases made through our company. I have a field named account codes that is a drop down box that displays all of the account codes available. 99% of the time, we use the same account code so I would like this to be the default value in the menu.

I don't want a person to try to create a new record without pressing one of these buttons. I hope that makes sense! ...
