DB Interface Wizard--No Checkboxes

[erik_gregory]

Hello:

I'm on FP 2002. In creating an evaluation form using the DB Interface
Wizard, I noticed that we cannot select checkboxes when defining DB columns
(text, drop downs and option buttons only). Now, my major problem is that
after the page is developed and I want to create an additional section with
checkbox selections, there seems to be no way to add a DB column for those
checkboxes in the existing DB. You can create a NEW DB (and the checkbox
columns show up in there), but then we're ditching the old DB and the Results
page is still calling results from the old and we lose all the goodies of the
DB Interace Wizard. I'm really, really stuck on this checkbox issue, which
doesn't seem to jive with the DB Interface Wizard. Help, anyone? Thanx in
advance.

Erik

Add a new field, and select Column Type: Boolean - Checkbox will appear in
the Form field input type box.
