Unbound check box won't check

I have a form that lists bank accounts, then specific transaction details for
that account number in a sub-form.

I want to add filtering capabilities to narrow the number of transactions
one is looking for.

On the transaction detail subform, in the header section, I have a number of
radio button frames to and text boxes to allow the user to select their
search criteria.

All of the search stuff is invisible and disabled when the form opens, with
instead a general text label that says "All Transactions For This Account"....

I also have a check box, with the label that says "Search for specific
transactions" -
I have the coding for the check box, so when it's enabled (= -1), the
original label is not visible, and all the search fields and descriptions
become visible and enabled.

I've tried putting the coding in both the "After Update" and "On Click"
events. I've also left all the coding off entirely.

The box doesn't do anything when clicked, ever. It's default value = 0,
it's enabled, visible, unlocked and Triple State = No.

Since I've used unbound check boxes in other headers of other subforms, I
don't think it's that. Is there something specific that might be happening
on the loading of the main form or the subform that I should look out for?

This does not appear to be a real problem. It is done all the time.
Post your code so we can see if the problem is there.

Never mind.... I had the "Allow Edits" switched to "No" to prevent changes to
the transaction details, so that also disabled changes to the values of the
unbound fields, including the check box and radio button frames. I'll
disable and lock the fields in the details.

I had already put together a workaround with a standard button, with the
action based upon the caption, which would toggle on clicks.

I like the checkbox better, so I'm reinstating that one.
