I talked to BMC about that once and they informed me that you can in fact have more than one option on a check box....but all options other than 0 are hidden..."It is useful to set those to other values with workflow"....yea right...

Alternately you can query for 'Radio Button' = 0, if "Y" is your first entry. Radio buttons/ selection fields are zero indexed integers stored in the database. So in your case "Y" =0 and "N" = 1 As for Check Boxes, boy where they ever a disappointment. Check boxes are also stored as integers but you get NULL or 0, that's unchecked or checked, respectively. If you want many values as check boxes you need to create as many fields as values that you need. They haven't come up with grouping preference or better yet a binary coded parameter so you only make one field and each checkbox has it's own 'weight'. HTH, John J.

Importance: High ** This is very basic, but it's not evident to me. I have created a Radio Button Field. I have 2 values Y and N (I'd like a checkbox, but can't get that to work either). When I want to select based on Y values, I get no results when I say 'Radio Button' = "Y" How can I create a Menu that finds only records where the Y Radio Button is selected? Alternatively, how can I use a Checkbox and only return values where the CB is checked? Thanks!
