Multiple checkboxes provide options in a field to make multiple selections. Checked boxes have a value of "Yes/True" and unchecked boxes are "No/False"
To create values in a Multiple Check Box:
- See the instructions to add a Field
- Select the Multiple Check Boxes display type
- Enter each value on a new line; In this example, shoe sizes are listed:
In the record, the Multiple Check Boxes will appear as follows:
Although the labels for the enumerated values may contain commas, the enumerated values may not contain commas
The orientation can be vertical or horizontal
- When displayed vertically, each label is shown on a separate line
- When displayed horizontally, the labels are shown on the same line, separated by commas
For Multiple Check Box fields where the labels include commas, vertical orientation is the better choice
