I don't quiet understand what you're trying to do.
But if you want to skip 'selected' checkboxes, you can simply have them disabled.
Or if you want them to be enabled, set them as ReadOnly, or set the TabStop property to .f..
Other Ideas are to put NODEFAULT in the When() or GotFocus() method or have it selective executed.
This will cause Fox to suppress it's default behaviour and not stop on the checkbox, neither let the user select it.
Or you can put a selective return .f. from the When()/GotFocus() method.
Or you can play with the KeyPress event to have the
key stroke tranformed into a KEYBOARD '{TAB}' which will make you jump to the following control.
So I hope I've put you on the road.
kind regards,
Yves.
