Tickbox value
Hi Guys,
I've a feeling this is a fairly basic question, but any help would be appreciated... I have a spreadsheet / questionnaire with a number of questions, and each question has five potential answers. I've allowed the user to tick a checkbox to indicate their answer, and linked each checkbox with a result spreadsheet elsewhere so I can keep track of who's answered what... My question is this - each of the checkkboxes gives a TRUE / FALSE value in the box that it is linked to... is there any way of changing this value? I'd like to have a number associated with each of the tickboxes - for example, the first box might print "0" or "1", the second might print "0" or "2" etc... I know I can use (if,,) to make a new table from the checkbox linked cells but this seems a little inefficient... Any help would be greatly appreciated... Thanks in advance, Chris... |

Tickbox value
If you wanted to program an event for each of the boxes instead of linking
them, then you could handle it that way, but there is no setting that will allow you to do what you want. That said, it can be done with option buttons from the forms toolbar - but you would have to enclose them in a groupbox. then they (all the option buttons in the groupbox) will all be linked to the same cell and a number will be returned indicating which box. -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy " wrote: Hi Guys, I've a feeling this is a fairly basic question, but any help would be appreciated...
