Hi Jason

 

You can do this by setting a temporary DO integer field to 0, then setting
the column to the value of the integer field.  To clear the checkbox, just
set the column to $NULL$

Subject: Set an editable check box in a table field

 

** Hi all,

I am wondering if anybody has or knows if it is possible to run a active
link table loop and check a check box that is set to editable.  What we have
is a parent child set of forms with the children viewable in a table field
on the parent form.  In that table field there is a check box field that I
have set to editable.  

What I would like to do is create a table loop that will go through and
check the box in all of the child records when the Select All button is
pushed.  I have created a guide and AL that does a set fields to the
attribute value of the check box.  The only thing the AL will do is NULL the
field if there is a check mark in it.  I have tried using the Selection
Value, the Alias Value, the ID Value for that field with no luck.  I even
tried using " " in my set field action hoping to emulate a press of the
space bar. Just to test I added an editable character field to my set fields
action and the value is entered when looping no problem.

Any ideas would be appreciated.  I am questioning if it is even possible to
set a check box in a table field because when I click on Modify Action in my
set fields it adds double quotes to any value I put in there. One workaround
that I though about was to do a push field, setting the check box on the
child records when clicking Select All and then refresh the table but I
would prefer to just set value in the table field and then push the value
with the parent is saved.

Thanks,
Jason
