Karen: You may not have to add that phantom checkbox column:

"Did you know that when using a Variable Lookup List View with check
boxes and multi-select enabled, it is possible to select multiple rows
and capture what is "selected", then click on multiple check box and
capture what is "checked", and the "selected" and "checked" records may
not be the same values?
"Enabling all such features of the control could be confusing to end users,
where it is perceived that a selected and checked row are the same.
"Newly added to Database/Variable Lookup List View controls is the "Synchronize
Selection and Check Boxes" property, where the check box state and row selection are
synchronized. When enabled, a change in the row selection will update the check boxes, and
vice versa. (emphasis added)
"The check box and row selection sync-effect may and also be dynamically set
with the PROPERTY command:
PROPERTY EmployeeListView SYNCCHECKBOXANDSELECTION ON
"With "Synchronize Selection and Check Boxes" enabled in a Variable Lookup List
View, the variable will always pick up only one selection." (emphasis added)

Thanks for the print-screen of that! I had documented the new
property, but I couldn't visualize how it works, and that explains it
well. Since you do need a check-box, perhaps doing a pre-check would
work. I'd have to load data into a temp table to get the extra column
to use for the check, but not a deal breaker!

Karen: Within the May 13, 2021 RGBX5E Update, the Dream Team enhanced
the List View control with the ability to synchronize check box and row
columns, and to change coloration of selected/ignored rows.
Caveat: The below example was generated by MANUALLY checking the boxes,
but I'm thinking the indexed PROPERTY pre-check approach would work as
well. Worth a shot.

The update was described in two Razzak's Tips o' the day. If you need
'em, let me know:
2021-05-19 | Tip: "Synchronize Selection and Check Boxes in List View
Controls"
List View Properties > Effects > [ ] Synchronize Selection and Check
Boxes
or:
PROPERTY EmployeeListView SYNCCHECKBOXANDSELECTION ON
2021-05-17 | Tip: "Background/Font Colors for Checked Rows in List View
Controls"
List View Properties > Colors > Checked Row Background and Font Color
or:
PROPERTY CustListView CHECKEDITEMFGCOLOR 'BLACK'
PROPERTY CustListView CHECKEDITEMBGCOLOR 'YELLOW'
Love to know how that turns out!
