3 Type a number in the

selected element before moving to the next element. In some
countries, for example, the length of the area code element in a
phone number is 3.

Defining a Check Box Object
Choose
Object Definition...
in the Format menu to open the Check Box
Definition dialog box when a check box object is selected.
Set Property Options
1 Click the
Properties
tab.
2 Type a unique name in the
Name
text box.
Each object must have a unique name. A descriptive name such
as
Yes Check Box
makes a field easy to find when sorting,
searching, defining calculations, and so forth.
3 Type a group name in the
Option Group
pop-up menu if the
check box belongs to an option group.
Creating an option group restricts you to one selection per
check box group. Selecting a check box in an option group
automatically deselects any checked box in the same group.
The group name you enter automatically appears in the
Option
Group
pop-up menu of the next check box you create. Select
this name to include the check box in the group.
