hi all,

 

I have 3 field (see attached for layout)

 

field 1 is a checkbox

field 2 is a pull down

field 3 is a date

 

field 2 and 3 are placed on top of field 1

 

the issue I have is the if I place a check on any of the option on field 1 I can no longer select field 2 or 3, if there a way around this?

 

 

Thanks

First, shouldn't the field be a radio button set? it seems that at least some of the choices are mutually exclusive.

 

 

if I place a check on any of the option on field 1 I can no longer select field 2 or 3

 

I don't think that is the case: you can select the overlaying fields, but you must deselect the checkbox field first. You could use an OnObjectModify script trigger to do this for you, but the whole arrangement seems kind of awkward. I believe it would be better to split the checkbox field into two (or more) parts, using separate value lists, or - even better - simulate the whole thing using buttons and some conditionally formatted text.
