I am attempting to modify a wizard-created contact database. I would like to
add "check boxes" to categorize contacts for the purposes of audience
specific mailings. A number of contacts fall into two, three, or four
categories, so I added check boxes for each category. It "looks" great. But
it doesn't work.

Here's how it goes: I enter contact information for Jane. She's a Board
Member and an Agency Director, so I check those boxes. Then I enter info for
Steve. The boxes checked on his record are "Board Member" and "Agency
Director" - when I change them, Jane's change also.

I have looked at the properties box. There are very few properties to
select, and nothing indicates that it should be "checked" or "unchecked."
When I click on the data tab in Properties, the tab is blank. The Event Tab
is also blank.

As simple as this question is, I cannot seem to find an answer. Any help
would be appreciated! Thanks

You must add the check box field to the table. Then bind the check box
on the form to the table field by setting it's control source to the
table field.
