On my report, I have 4 unbound checkboxes. But I would like to have them
either be checked (true) or unchecked (false) based on data entered in
specific text fields.

What I mean is checkbox #1 is either checked or unchecked based on a text
field which is titled LOCATION. In LOCATION, there are two list items to
chose from; "In" and "Out". If the data is set to "Out", I want this checkbox
checked. If its set to "In", I want the checkbox blank, or false

On checkbox #2, I an checking a date field titled DATE_LOANED. If the field
has a date in it, I want the checkbox to be checked. If there is no date, I
want the checkbox unchecked.

Checkbox #3 is like #2, only I am looking at a regular text field
CLAIM_NUMBER instead of a date field.

Checkbox #4 is looking at a FIRST_NAME field. If the field has the word
"OTC", then I want the checkbox checked. Otherwise, anything else would have
the checkbox unchecled.

I tried this line of code for the first checkbox:

If Me.Location = "Out" Then Me.CheckboxName = True
But all this did was make the checkbox checked, regardless if the field was
set to "In" or "Out".

I've asked questions in the past and find that everyone here has been a
tremendous amount of help. I'd appreciate a little more help again! <G>

thanks,

Richard
