Thank you all, especially mr_vodka, who showed me a great way to do this! If anyone is interested, see his method here: http://forums.filemaker.com/posts/92992696db?start=1&stop=10#192087 -F

John, That is exactly what I'm doing already. However, that way I could check multiple portal rows (on purpose or by accident), thus making multiple addresses the "default" and completely defeating the purpose of having a default in the first place. I know... Tell the user to not do that. Yes, I even have a tooltip that mentions only checking one box, but I much prefer to prevent the user from multiple checks if I can. -F

Hello everyone, I'd like to be able to use a checkbox or radio button set to specify a "default" entry in a portal. For example, I have a membership database, and in a member record, I show a portal of his/her addresses. Since each member can have multiple addresses, I'd like the user to check a box/radio button to specify which of the addresses shown in the portal is the default address for that member. Easy enough to add a checkbox field... However, I'd like this checkbox to act like radio button sets, where you can only have one checked at a time. The problem is that the context of a radio button set is a record and I want it to be the portal, so I can have one checkbox per record and have them automatically clear if I select a different record in that portal. Any ideas? Thanks for any help, Fernando

Has anyone had any luck fixing this problem of "font size not supported" on the Mac? Seems to work fine on Windows or even in FileMaker Go on an iPad. Thanks!
