check one checkbox and make another uncheck


Recommended Posts

I am working on a function to print labels with barcodes, and am now faced with doing either 4*20 sheets or 3*10 sheets. I'd like my main GUI to have 2 checkboxes, one for 30 labels, another for 80 labels, and when the button for "go to print layout" is hit it will bring up the right layout. I was wondering if there is an easy way to have an either-or "pair" of checkboxes, so that whatever one does, the other does the opposite. Scripting that wouldn't be impossible of course, but maybe there is a function I don't know about?? BitAND could get the job done, but I might run in to a loop where it would just re-switch the boxes...........

Anyway, thanks for any suggestions. I'd post code, but A)simple enough question (I think) and B)the code for the whole project is 1600 lines long!! :0

Thanks again for any suggestions!

Why not just use Radios instead of Checkboxes?

:D

With Melba's suggestion I did. The rest of the GUI, and in fact all other GUIs I've made, have used checkboxes, dunno, guess I just kinda like them hehehehe

It was the grouping that I was unaware of.

Thanks again

Ian
