Make sure that v_Serial_Unique has the right datatype and is setup as section D. If that doesnt work you could cheat and do it this way Put a Variable Label on the Report and change the font to a WINGDING and use this variable. Looks kind of funny but you should get a checked and uncheck box. This would be a Report Variable setup in section D v_Serial_Unique = (IFEQ(Serial_Unique,1,'þ','¨')) Victor Timmons Tiz's Door Sales, Inc Visit us at www.tizdoors.com <http://www.tizdoors.com/> P Please consider the environment before printing this e-mail

When using a 'Db CheckBox. Before Generate Custom EEP: IF v_Serial_Unique = '1' THEN PROPERTY myVarCheckBox1 CHECKED 'TRUE' ELSE PROPERTY myVarCheckBox1 CHECKED 'FALSE' ENDIF The variable is text and is 1,2,3,4 (the reason for text is a long one, at first it is a integer way back.) All my attempts have failed. I tried tracing it and watching the values (all is displayed and looks good)but my thought are running out. Any thoughts?
