L.J., I think that's a much better answer than to have a space character for
the selection value.
I also create checkbox fields with null labels, for two reasons. First, when
you look at most examples of Windows GUIs, the checkbox is on the left and the
text is on the right. We should always strive to do what's "normal" in user
interface design. Second, when you write Run If qualifications, they make much
more sense when the selection is some meaningful statement (i.e., something
other than a space character).
I usually make the database name a question and the selection value the answer,
so to speak. For example:
($User Likes Pizza?$ = "User Likes Pizza")
Or:
($Show All Items?$ = $NULL$)
That way you don't have to look at the Run If and wonder what it means...

** The way I have seen (and personally use check fields) is to delete the
label and set the only option to the value I'm looking for. It isn't possible
to have a check field with no values....what would you then be checking when
you checked the field?
