checkboxes entering info

[LoneReaper]

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 - "

Hi,

Your new field should be a calculation field which reads...

Substitute(checkboxField, "

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?

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!
