You could set it up so that Dlookup fills the value only if one doesn't exists, and then you can manually write it with a new value. Just make sure that you don't overwrite existing values.

However, I need functionality where these default values can be overwritten on a case by case basis. e.g. selecting a Doctor would pull through their usual specialty. However, occasionally one might need to overwrite that specialty in individual cases. So that Dr X would normally default to Respiratory, but may occasionally have his default changed when working in a Coronary setting. Any ideas on a method to achieve this would be welcome. Thanks.
