first of all, i suggest you name all of your checkboxes the same, unless you
have a different reason, and you should assign the ID's to the values of the
checkboxes. the reason for this is that all of the boxes checked will come
out in one form variable in a comma delimited list of their values. so
let's say I name all my check boxes Goober, and each of their values are the
ID's. Let's say I click on 3 boxes. The value of Form.Goober would be
34,54,22. something like that. See, it comes out as a comma delimited
list! ou also know how many boxes were checked by the number of values in
the list, which is 3. So Listlen(Form.Goober) is equal to 3!
