thanks jester, that helped and thanks to Steven Webster's book, chapter 7.... :-)
here is what worked and what I did...
<mx:Script>
function changeOther( event )
{
if ( event.target == summaryCHB )
detailCHB.enabled = !detailCHB.enabled;
if ( event.target == detailCHB )
summaryCHB.enabled = !summaryCHB.enabled;
}
</mx:Script>
function changeOther( event )
{
if ( event.target == summaryCHB )
detailCHB.enabled = !detailCHB.enabled;
if ( event.target == detailCHB )
summaryCHB.enabled = !summaryCHB.enabled;
}
</mx:Script>
<mx:FormItem >
<mx:CheckBox label="Summary" labelPlacement="bottom" id="summaryCHB" click="changeOther( event );"/>
</mx:FormItem>
<mx:FormItem>
<mx:CheckBox label="Detail" labelPlacement="bottom" id="detailCHB" click="changeOther( event );"/>
</mx:FormItem>
<mx:CheckBox label="Summary" labelPlacement="bottom" id="summaryCHB" click="changeOther( event );"/>
</mx:FormItem>
<mx:FormItem>
<mx:CheckBox label="Detail" labelPlacement="bottom" id="detailCHB" click="changeOther( event );"/>
</mx:FormItem>

Subject: [flexcoders] how to make an object active?
Here's a quickie that I am sure someone can answer pretty quickly; I
have a radio group that has x number of items, and what I want to do
is make a coulple of checkboxes either be greyed out (active) or in-
active depending on which radiobutton a user clicks on; my code:
if a user click on the first radiobutton I want the summary check
box to be active and the detail check box to gey out...
can reply to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or here...
