The list of items is derived by collecting the data form a table that
holds the information that goes into the ValueList.
When you say "BASED ON items in the value list", does that mean
they're not exactly the same as the items in the value list? (For
example, if the value list contained values like "Ford",
"Chrysler", and "General Motors", would your list of terms have
things like "Mercury", "Dodge", and "Chevrolet"?)
ValueList (Models):
Mercury
Dodge
Chevrolet
Ford
Someone owns two cars:
Mercury
Ford
The List of Items consists of:
Mercury
Ford
So, the field, CarList has the information from the ValueList (Models)
☐ Mercury
☐ Dodge
☐ Chevrolet
☐ Ford
I want to have the checkboxes for Mercury and Ford checked. So that
the ValueList (Models) in the checkbox field of CarList looks like THIS:
☒Mercury
☐ Dodge
☐ Chevrolet
☒Ford
From using a ScriptMaker script.
Hope that helps....

Examples would make it easier to understand the question.

....I have a ValueList of items. It is in a field that is set to
use CheckBoxes.
I have a list of terms based on items in the ValueList. The items
in the list of terms are separated by carriage returns.
Here is a question....
How do I get the items in the list of terms to get a check-mark to
appear in the check-box field for the appropriate item in the
ValueList associated with that field?
