I have some fields that are looked up from other table's value lists and
represented in the main table as Checkbox Lists.

How can I insure the checkboxes are populated as empty when the field is
diplayed?

It seems that one of the boxes always comes up with an "X" in it.

Thanks

You're saying "looked up."


If you are, in fact, performing a lookup, then your checkbox field will be
populated with the looked up value.

Matt,

I said it badly. The checkbox field is populated with the looked up value.
What happens is that at least one of the checkboxes is checked. I want to
run a script or calculation that will make sure all of the boxes are
unchecked (unpopulated?).

Thanks for pointing it out.

Your script need only consist of the single step

Replace Contents [ YourField ; "" ]

which will act on the found set.

Matt,

Why is it that I so often overlook the simple and elegant solutions provided
to me?

Thanks!
