the table a checkbox is placed on the form where the user can check if he
has the software installed or not. Hereby the softwarename become the label
of the checkbox and when a new software is added to the list I don't have to
change the from

Elio,

what you want is way too complicated, and you'll get pretty soon in a
dead end because of the number of the records. Use instead a
continuous form to display the records. Please note: the check box
must be bound in order to work correctly (that is, you would have a
Yes/No field in the table).

Best regards
