Hi all,
Would you please show me a best way to handle more than 10 lists to check all that apply. I understand that we can make the field alpha with lengh equal to the number of lists to check from but does'nt work properly when the numbers associated witheach value is two digits.
Thanks for yr help
Handling more than 10 lists in a checkbox
Re: Handling more than 10 lists in a checkbox
What about using ABCD...Z, that leaves you with at least 26 possibilities.

Re: Handling more than 10 lists in a checkbox
In the release version of CSPro 4.1.001, you could only use the numbers 0-9 or the letters A-Z for the multiple check boxes. So if you used 1-9, A-F, as an example, you would make the length of the field 15.
In the new beta versions that are available, you can use numbers higher than 9. For example, if you wanted to use the numbers 01 - 15, you would make the length of your field 30. Get the 4.1.002 beta here:

Re: Handling more than 10 lists in a checkbox
Can Alpha in multiple check box be tabulated in 4.1.002 ?
If not, is is planned to make a version of CSPro which will allow Alpha field tabulation ?
Thank you.

Re: Handling more than 10 lists in a checkbox
This can be added to the list of feature requests. One think to consider in the meantime is that if you modify your dictionary for tabulation and turn that alpha field into an item with multiple occurrences, you can tabulate it as long as you don't use letters in the checkboxes. So, as an example, if you made the checkboxes 01-15, you could make a numeric item with multiple occurrences that would read the contents of the alpha multiple checkbox field.
