Check Box to Number

[Guest]

Form View, I have a number of Check boxes on a Form Page.

When a Check Box is clicked I would like it to genarate a number unique to
that Box.

I then need to total up all the check Boxes to give me a total score.

I AM VERRY NEW TO THIS AND WILL NEED DUMMY TALK

Check boxes only have two values (not including null in tripple states),
True and False or -1 and 0.
If you need to store or work with other numbers, then you need to either
programatically assign the appropriate value to some other control when a
check box is selected, or use a different control such as an option group or
combobox. You have not supplied enough info on your circumstances to really
advise as to the best method though.

I am not sure what you want to do, but I am guessing you want to check a
box and at the same time in the same record but in a different filed add a
unique number. I wonder if you will have records with the check box not
checked. I wonder if you even need the check box if you are going to have a
unique number, why not just use that?

Just off hand, if I am guessing correctly about what you want, I would
suggest no check box but have the number field. How to do that would
require knowing if you will have some records without such a number. Or is
is possible that a unique number could be assigned to each record and have a
check box to ID those that you may want to make that number visible???
