January 3, 200818 yr I've hit an interface wall. What I want is a tree table view , but I can't think of how to do this in FM elegantly. My goal is a portal of checkbox choices (the parents). Each choice has one or more checkbox choice children. A child can appear in one or more parents, but parents are unique (aren't they now : ). If the user deselects a parent, the children of that parent become disabled for selection. However, a user can select any or none of the children in a selected parent. How can I achieve this in FM? The quick way out is a portal of children, sorted by parent, I suppose. However, won't achieve the ability to disable all children of one parent with one click.

January 4, 200818 yr Author Actually, I have but had forgotten about it. Thanks a million, I think I can modify it to do what I want. It's a great start.
