>- see footer for list info -< You should probably do it several ways....one way would be to check the option value from the DB back to the select list and see if its equal to '--No Preference--' another would be to simply alter the select statement to not bring back the '--No Preference--' option from the database (assuming you are getting this value from their)

The first item of the list is --No Preference-- I use the same list in the back end system for data entry. Obviuosly now I don't want the user to see the --No Preference-- as an option. How do I do this?
