assigning value for unbound checkbox

[astro]

this must be obvious and i'm missing it...............

i want to have 4 checkboxes in a groupbox - box1 value = 1, box2 = 2, box3 =
4, box4 = 8

these ctrls are not bound...I want to assign these values..

how do i do this (i.e. what property in the IDE property window do i use)?

also - can i get the groupbox value to reflect the sum of the selected
checkboxeswhile i'm at it?

argh...

thanks )

Hi,

You can store a value in the checkbox's tag property.

Have a look at the bindingevents

Start reading at the bottom, here it is done with a date because that is
mostly the most difficult.

I hope this helps,
