If you are able to switch on “allow management of content types” in your list you can then change the properties of the Title column so that it is hidden (will not appear in forms) there is an easy to follow blog post on how to do this here http://www.dlocc.com/articles/how-to-remove-title-column-from-sharepoint-list/

The only thing I found a problem with was if the field you are replacing is the main "title" field, it won't let you delete it afterwards. I just hid it from the view, but it still shows up when the user clicks "new". However, they can add through the datasheet without any problem. Any ideas of how to get around this would be appreciated. I have SP Designer, but didn't want to modify the form if I didn't have to. This article helped me SO much.

This will require a number of queries because you have to query for every permutation of "0" fields, working down from 5 fields to 1, because if you do them one at a time, it won't let you save the record. Alternatively, you could write a VB module which would go through the table and replace all 0's with Nulls for any number of columns. Then, just run that code before you open any related forms or run update queries.

I'm having the exact same problem but haven't diagnosed it until your comment. I can now see that SharePoint (2007) sets the lookup values to "0" if the user chooses "(None)", which then causes errors in Access 2007. My fields aren't used by SharePoint workflows or anything, so I should be able to require values and supply a "null" lookup or something, but it's very annoying. Please post back if you find a fix.
