Patti, Check your form component and make sure that the component ID “CIGetUHome” does not have a blank at the very end like this “CIGetUHome ”. This used to happen because the paste command used to append a blank space at the end of text copied, I am not sure if it still does. I got caught in this a few times and it is a PIA to find. Now, whenever I assign component ID by copying and pasting, I always check for this. Also, for testing pre-assign a value to vGetUHome just before your command block and then trace the execution and see if and when the command is reached and if it does what is supposed to do. You can repeat the process by pre-assigning NULL value to vGetUHome and repeat the procedure. This approach should pin point where the problem is.

If I do the eep after the detail section, and the checkbox is in the detail section, isn't it too late? Patti _____

If so and then the eep needs to be in the after detail band Buddy From: 'Patti Jakusz' via RBASE-L [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, October 3, 2016 11:01 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [RBASE-L] - Check boxes on reports Hi Buddy, I was not able to get this to work. Not sure what I did wrong. I put this in the eep that generates before the band. (BTW, I never knew you could do a band-specific eep before.) if vGetUHome is null then property CIGetUHome CHECKED 'FALSE' else property CIGetUHome CHECKED 'TRUE' endif return I placed the variable on the report so I could see if the variable was working right, and it is.

I was kind of expecting that if my database column or variable was null, the box would be blank and if it had data in it, there would be a checkmark in my checkbox. But that doesn't seem to be happening - all I get are blank boxes. Exactly what makes the checkmark appear in the box?
