March 12, 200421 yr I have a field with about 24 check boxes as I tab through them and press "spacebar" to check the boxes I would like those checkboxes to enter their values into another field. How would i do that? So if i had these check boxes 1. Book is in Very Good Condition - 2. Book is in Good Condition - 3. Book is in Acceptable Condition - 4. Minimal Wear Present - 5. Minor Wear Present - 6. Some Wear Present - 7. Previous Owner's Name on Inside - 8. Previous Owner's Note on Inside - and i only check boxes 1,6,8 my field would read: "Book is in Very Good Condition - Some Wear Present - Previous Owner's Note on Inside - "
March 12, 200421 yr Hi, Your new field should be a calculation field which reads... Substitute(checkboxField, "
March 12, 200421 yr Author perfect! one last problem, when i check the boxes and then click on another field i always get this message This field is defined to only contain specific values. Allow this? Revert Field Yes No I cannot filed in the field definitions where to allow more values. Do you know how to fix this message from coming up?
March 12, 200421 yr Author i got it, i had to define the field as a text field, not a member of a value list, under layout just have the field format as checkboxes. Thank YOU!
