Again part of the legacy system I'm changing, fopr some reason the author made a field that ellicits a Y/N answer C(1) and codes the original form to check for this, rather than making it logical. I want my new form to have a checkbox.

Never come across this requirement before but I thought it would be achievable by putting the expression:

=IIF( RteFam.Survey = "Y", .T., .F.)

in the .Value property of the checkbox. It doesn't react at all. I tried:

=IIF( RteFam.Survey = "Y", 1, 0)

but that makes no difference either. Sure I know I can put code in a method to set the checkbox but I just wanted to do it simply, sans code.

Why doesn't this work?

'ppreciate it.
