yes/no check boxes

[moleary]

How can I lock a yes/no check box to require that you only pick one or the other and not able to check both?


example: new () used()

you are only able to pick new or used. what do I need to do!!


Thanks!!

I presume you have two check boxes side by side and you want new or used checked not both. If thats the case have you any objections to using radio buttons?

 

[moleary]

Yes I have several of these that only one or the other needs to be checked.... I have no objections to anything.....I am sorta new at these. If someone would walk me through I have no objections to any ideas as long as it works! LOL

Will the radio buttons store the "new" or "used" in my table still!

 

[Uncle Gizmo]

Is there a seperate field for "new" and a seperate field for "used" or is there one field that is true for new and false for used?

BTW the second option (one field) would be preferable from a programming point of view...

 

[moleary]

no I had them set up in different fields using yes/no

 

[Uncle Gizmo]

Could you amalgamate them in to one field, or do you require seperate fields for some reason?

 

[Uncle Gizmo]

Thinking about it, you don't need to amalgamate the two fields, they both contain the same data. If its "New" it's not "Used" and visa versa. So you only need one of the fields to store the data.

This is a quick example:

yes! okay dumb question now though, how do I do that......I could be making this more complicated in my head, but I am not sure. Thanks!!!
