Hi all,

Normally, I group radio buttons together and use code such as "set the hilitedbutton of group BLAHBLAH to 0" or "put the hilitedbutton of group BLAHBLAH after data".

However, now I need to use checkboxes wherein ALL 4 options could be selected. If I use the code above, only the first option gets reported in data.

Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Hi,

you need to check "the hilite of btn X" manually, maybe in a repat loop.
Like this:

Code: Select all

...
repeat with i = 1 to 4
  put the hilite of btn ("checker" & i) & CR after tList
end repeat
## Get rid of trailing CR
delete char -1 of tList
...

Now you have CR delimited list with the hilites of your buttons.
Example
true
false
false
true

You get the picture

Thank you. Your code allowed me to configure things correctly. (I set it up so that it transformed the "true" and "false" to "1"s and "0"s, and did not delimit them on individual lines but with commas).

Hi,

a COMMA separated list is also fine

Whatever works for you!
