Hi Jane,

If you had a value list of yes and no and wanted a check by yes you
would do a set field with a value of yes and then an X would appear
next to yes.
I tried something like that...
SetField ( myField ; $selectedValues ) // Where $selectedValues was
a list of values I wanted set
Didn't work.
I'll go back and review this. Do some more testing. I THOUGHT I was
on the right track, but when it didn't work, I was somewhat flummoxed.
Thanks,
Chuck

....what call will work to put an "X" in a checkbox of a ValueList
populated field from a ScriptMaker script?

When you say "I have a list of terms", where is the list? Is it
already in the database? Does it exist outside the database and
you're looking to import it?
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):
MercuryDodgeChevroletFord
Someone owns two cars:
MercuryFord
The List of Items consists of:
MercuryFord
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

Hope that helps....

Examples would make it easier to understand the question.

Here's a situation....
....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?
