Load Value From Config File and Automatically Tick the Checkbox

**p_zshk** · July 27th, 2011, 12:59 AM

Hi,

I have a dialog form that contains 4 tabs, of which on the 4th tab, i have implemented a check box. When that checkbox is checked, a value of "1" should be stored in the configuration file which i am using for the system.

When I am loading my application, it should accordingly load the corresponding settings from the configurations file and it should automatically check that checkbox.

The problem here is,
I am able to store the settings in my configuration file and I am also able to read that particular value while loading the application.

But I am not able to automatically tick the checkbox according to the value("1").

How can I achieve this?

Regards,
p_zshk

Create a control member variable for that checkbox (say, c_myCheck), then use

Code:

c_myCheck(TRUE):  //  to check the box
c_myCheck(FALSE):  //  to uncheck the box

or if you have an integer var iCheck (0 or 1)

Code:

c_myCheck(iCheck):

What is wrong for you with SetCheck?

there is no issue with SetCheck....i have used it before too..and it works fine..

but the application on which i am operating already have some checkboxes implemented and they have been implemented in a different way...thats why i want to know whether there is an alternative available for this...
