Hi Ross,
Yes, I did try that... but what I want is string parameter that changes
based on whether or not you've checked a checkbox (or a way to change the
label of the output based on whether or not the checkbox was checked). So
my idea below did work, but it seems like a hack. Which is why I was
wondering if there was a better way.
