Hi again,
I want to be able to change the values of check boxes by clicking a button. I am not too sure of the code to effect this. basically I want if the checkbox is checked (Y), when the button is clicked the check box should be unchecked (N). i have been playing around but nothing seems to work.

Hi
Go to the properties of check box and see what you have Set for
Property Value when checked and Value when unchecked
set them 'Y' and 'N' accordingly.After This under button code
if :block.item ='Y' then
:block.item:='N';
else
:block.item:='Y';
end if
Ram

hi thank u this worked but i forgot to mention that the checkboxes are part of a multi record block. The solution provided unchecks one record (which was the last one checked).

Then you will have to loop through all the records.
Store the value for :system.cursor_record or get_record_property(block,current_record) so you know which record you are currently processing (saved_record_number). Then get_block_property(block,top_record) to know which record is at the top of the screen (saved_top_record).
Use 'first_record' to go to the top of the list, set your check-box, then 'while :system.last_record <> true', go 'down' and repeat you check-box activities.
Once finishedif saved_record_number < get_block_property(block,records_displayed)
-- (we started on first page)
first_record;
go_record(saved_record_number)
else
last_record;
go_record(saved_top_number);
go_record(saved_record_number);
end if;
Try it and see how you go.
