This might be what I'm looking for.  I don't recall ever seeing the Choose 
Command before.  (I really need hard copy manuals.)
So, if on my form, I had a question like: Does client have any issues with her 
current housing?
   I could use Get Property to check the answer.  If answer = Y, then Choose 
vQuestAnswer  from (something - not sure what)   and a sort-of pop-up menu 
would show up with my possible answers, like:    1 Back rent owed    2 Rent too 
high    3 Back utilities     4 Rodents    5 Unsafe neighborhood     And if I 
selected 3 of these, it would store the numbers in vQuestAnswer, like 1,3,5  ?

{}#yiv7155258774 Patti  You could create a TEXT column (ChoAnsw TEXT (50)) just 
make it large enough to hold all 10 responses and allow for comma.    I used 
the CHOOSE command to get a comma delimited answer then store that in your TEXT 
column.    Now when you want to know select that column into a variable.   
CHOOSE vQuestAnswer FROM ……. CHKBOX 10 …   Now update ChoAnsw column with 
vQuestAnswer  Buddy        From: 'Patti Jakusz' via RBASE-L

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Mark all that apply  Hello,  Is there a form control I can 
use for questions that have "Mark All That Apply" type answers?  If I have a 
question that has 10 possible answers, I've always created 10 columns and had 
10 checkboxes on by form.  But what I would be happy with is a text field that 
gives me a column that looks something like:32,6,7,101,8etc.    I don't really 
want to spend a lot of time doing it. Most of the time, I don't even use this 
data for anything other than passing though to our funding source.  I have 
dozens of these things and hate creating hundreds of columns for nothing.  
Thank you.  --
