Thank you, Javier.
I have to play around with the Choose idea because I've never used it before.  
Thank you for laying it all out for me.  I think I understand.

You can use something like this:CHOOSE voptions FROM #LIST 
+'1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10' +CHKBOX 10 +TITLE 'Select options...' CAPTION 
'Available Options' +LINES 11 +OPTION Themenane Longhorn  And it will allow you 
to select as many options as you need up to 10 as indicated by CHKBOX and the 
variable will contain the selected values separated by commas.  You can build 
the list of options at run time and use a variable instead of the list of 
items; the option must be in a comma separated format like this:  SET VAR vOne 
TEXT = '1'SET VAR vTwo TEXT = '2'SET VAR vThree TEXT = '3'SET VAR vFour TEXT = 
'4'SET VAR vList TEXT = (.vOne + ',' + .vTwo + ',' + .vThree + ',' + 
.vFour)CHOOSE vOptions FROM #LIST .vList +CHKBOX 10 +TITLE 'Select options...' 
CAPTION 'Available Options' +LINES 5 +OPTION Themenane Longhorn  Lots of ways 
to do what you want.  Javier,  Javier Valencia, PE14315 S. Twilight Ln.Olathe,

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.  --
