Yes/No is a Boolean field so it can only be on/off...yes/no. So it'll always
be No until you flip it to yes.
Rather, create a text field that is 1 character long and set to a Lookup.
Enter your own values of M and F.

Thanks for trying Cathy, but that doesn't work - saves OK so syntax etc. is
accepted, but when M or F are entered in the Field (it currently has all
No's), Acccess gives the message "The value you entered isn't valid for this
field. For example, you may have entered text in a numeric field or a number
that is larger than the FieldSize setting permits." and putting quotes on
value list Row Source gets the same result.
Anybody got any other ideas?

Thanks for the clarification. To prevent any other entry that M/F, in table
design view, set the Validation Rule to:
Like "M" Or "F"
If you want to also have a lookup you can set the list box value to M;F.
hth, Cathy
