Default Simple Checkbox Message Code

Sorry I couldn't help.

I think I'm just going to use option boxes. I wanted check boxes
because I wanted to be able to select more than one in a group, but I
can do without. Thanks so much for all of your help, though - have a
great week.

I guess I don't have any other suggestions except to take that first
suggestion
and modify it to include all the checkboxes you need. I guess I still
don't
understand what controls what and how the checkboxes are "grouped".

The user *will *click on the checkbox they are going to change to,

but I
want to ask for confirmation before they change to it because there

are
many checkboxes grouped closely that if changed incorrectly could

cause
some confusion, and it's fairly easy to select the wrong one by
accident. The checkboxes are signifying a level of risk involved

with
each phase of a project, and if the risk level is changed by

accident
the reports will be off, so I just want to have this added security
built in. Any further questions please let me know. Thanks again -

I'm not sure I understand, but as a user, I think I would rather

click
on the
checkboxes themselves to change them--rather than answering

several
prompts that
ask me a question about each checkbox.

Are you trying to have a "master" checkbox that turns all the

other
checkboxes
on or off?

And if you are, how many checkboxes does that master checkbox

control
and how
many groups are there?

Hey -
Thanks so much for your help so far. That does execute, but I

think
I
explained what I'm trying to do badly. If any certain

checkboxes
out
of (N number of) checkboxes are checked, I want to be able to ask

if
the user really wants to change TO THAT checkbox and then

uncheck
the
others of the group. So, for instance, in a group of 3

checkboxes,
if
the first is checked and the user checks the 3rd, it will ask

for
confirmation, uncheck the first, then check the third. Can you

give
me
some assistance with that? Thanks again, and sorry for the lack

of
clarity.
Steve
