Marco The dialog statement has a 'calling' clause which allows you call a handler sub to modify it at runtime - the UI is not the most powerful selling point in MapBasic but you can do stuff.
Suggest you have a list of checkboxes and set the title for each in your dialog handler using 'Alter Control' - then hide the extra checkboxes if you have more than you need. Have each checkbox call the same handler routine. If you use an array you'll be able to refer to the same column name or number in your dialog handler and the handler for the checkboxes.

They need to be displayed separately. The code I'm trying; nCols = NumCols(SelectedTable) Dialog Title "Columns" For i = 1 To nCols Control CheckBox Title ColumnInfo(SelectedTable,"COL"+i,COL_INFO_NAME) Next But this doesn't work. Is there a way to make this work? Thanks, Marco Kok ******************************************************************** This email may contain information which is privileged or confidential.
