Check Box on Tabular Form

R

Roxie Aho

I have a tabular form bound to a query returning about 15
records. On all the fields, the Enabled property equals
No and the Locked property equals Yes. The form doesn't
allow Edits, Additions, Deletions or New records.

I have an unbound Check Box in the Detail section.
Eventually I will have some code behind it to write to a
second table. If I check the Check Box, every record is
checked, not just the one I checked. Earlier for testing
purposes I put a Command Button in the Detail Section.
When I click on the Command Button in a record it acts as
intended, updating the data in the record in the second
table.

What am I doing wrong?

You are doing nothing wrong. Unbound controls do not
really 'work' on continuous forms. The best way to think
of them is as multiple instances of a single control. So
you check one instance of the check box and they all become
checked.

Hope This Helps
