Question : Display Yes No field

I  have an Access form and a SQL database.  I have a field with Data Type Int.  I have format set to Yes/No.  But if I just click on the field it displays a 0 or -1.  I don't want that.  Is there a setting I can change so if you click in the field it stays as Yes or No.
Thanks

Answer : Display Yes No field

Since the underlying data is Int, it's quite natural that the interface shows the number (and not your formatting) when you edit the field. As Jeff said, a checkbox is often nice, but you can also use a tiny combo box, displaying yes/no, i.e.

    RowSourceType: Table/Query
    RowSource: -1;'yes';0;'no'
    ColumnCount: 2
    etc.

Cheers!
