Checkboxes

[David]

Is there a way to set the value of another checkbox by another checkbox.
In Excel you can group checkboxes and optionbuttons, I haven't figured out
how to do that in Access
If you have got 2 checkboxes that you want to tie together so that if one of
them is checked the other one will uncheck itself
Any Thoughts?

Hi,
Place an Option Group control on the form and then
place your option buttons or checkboxes within that control.
This will 'group' them.

you can group options in Access by using the OptionBox
(Also know as a frame) from the toolbox. This will allow
you to select one in a group.

Hi David,

use the option group tool to create a frame with the check
boxes within.

Just as an aside, the convention is to have option buttons
when only one option can be chosen and checkboxes when
more than one option can be chosen...
