hide a checkbox

Z

I have a form with multiple checkboxes (47), where I'd like to hide the
checkboxes themselves but not the labels associated with the checkboxes. I've
tried setting the checkbox size to 0" but I get a weird checkbox in the
upperleft hand of my report, and it doesn't seem to work on all the
checkboxes.

Any ideas?

you should be able to delete just the checkbox's label - but not the check box.

then you can add new labels. put them next to the checkbox so they appear
as the checkbox's label but they will be their own entity that you can
control completely separately.

If you detach the label from the check box, then you can see
the label even it the check box has its Visible property set
to No.

If you need the labels to be attached to their check box,
then put all of the check boxes in a blanl area of the form
and place a label with a Normal BackStyle on top of them
(using the Format menu item Bring To Front).
