Steve, if I have a lot of check boxes to deal with I create a temporary table from the data and then add a column (alter table) to handle the check box. I then create a form with a scrolling region based on the temporary table. The scrolling region contains the data and a separate field for the check box. This give me a lot of control of the data and makes a very nice presentation to the user.

Problem is that using this method in 7.6 it limits me to only beling able to choose 10 itmes and there are sometimes many more items to choose from.
