SC3.0 Visible Vs. Invisible!?! 1

[TudorSmith]

Hi,

I have a field on my format which is invisible.

If a user selects "unsatisfied" from my three listed radio buttons (Very Satisfied, Satisfied & Unsatisfied), I would like my field to become visible.

I know that I can set the "visible Condition" , but how do I tell the field to be visible when the radio button is selected?

Does it have to do with the state of the radio button?

I'm trying things like:
[unsatisfied]<>&quot;&quot;
[unsatisfied]=1

etc. but so far, nothing works!

Anybody offer any advice?

There is a field in the radio button properties called &quot;Value&quot; that you have to set. The way radio buttons work is that you can have multiple buttons with the same Input and different things in Value.

If this is just a single button that you want either on or off (if the person is unsatisfied or not), then a checkbox might be more appropriate. With a checkbox, you should be pointing it to a logical field in the dbdict, with a radio button, you can point it to a character, value, date/time, etc.

Thanks chrishaw,

That work a treat. I &quot;bound&quot; each of the radio buttons to the same field (&quot;Satisfied&quot, then just made each fields &quot;Value&quot; dictate the selection.

This also allowed me to make an additional field visible if the [satisfied]=&quot;Unsatisfied&quot; value was true.

Cool stuff!

Thanks again
