Hiding drop down arrows in MS Access forms

Question

I am looking for a way to to hide the drop down arrows in fields on a form which refer to list boxes with drop down menus.

Attention, I am not looking to eliminating them, only hiding them until the user arrives on that field. And the has the opportunity to access the drop down menu.. Im not sure what features MS Access 2013 and VBA offer for this type of request, or if it is even possible but was wondering if there are any creative words of wisdom out there..

Thanks,

You can place a rectangle to mask the arrow; when the GotFocus() event occurs for that control, you can make the rectangle invisible.
