"This is the way checkboxes (and radiobuttons) work in Windows. Clicking the
label is the same as clicking the checkbox itself. I don't think the Legacy
programmers can't change this behavior"


Dennis,

That is not the case.  People who know about coding PC programs (not me)
have stated that using a single field for BOTH the radio button or check
box and the label to the right of it (quick and dirty code) is what causes
the enormous (and unexpected) active area.  If the entry spot and the label
are defined as separate fields, then only the entry area will be a hot spot.
The labels will be inert background, just as they appear to be on the
screen, and the huge blank spaces to the right of the labels will be
irrelevant.  There is much discussion of this subject in the archives
a couple of months ago.
