Unbound checkboxes on continuous forms

[Guest]

I have an unbound check box in a continuos form. The problem is when you
click the check box the check boxes change for all records.

Is there anyway to stop this behavior?

thanks

That is operating corectly. If you need to 'remember' that only some of the
recors are checked, then you would have to bind the field to those records.
It is "one" unbound field being displayed multiple times.

What are you trying to accomplish?

When a user checks the box it adds the date to a bound textbox in the record.
I could do the same thing with a button, but I wanted the visual que for the
user without adding unnecesary true/false field to the table. I know the date
itself is a visual que, but I am trying to imitate another application used
by our department.

When in use, the form may have hundreds if records displayed at a time.
Having the check box is easier on the eyes, when scrolling through looking
for things that haven't been received yet.

thanks for your help
