Hello everybody,
I have a hopefully simple question regarding forms in OOWriter.
I would like to insert a checkbox into a writer table (not calc) and assign the value of an adjacent cell to that checkbox. So if the checkbox is ticked, the adjucent cell would get e.g. the value 5.
Is this possible without registering a data source?
Thank you in advance,
Nikos

Here is an idea:
My solution based on Document Info as storage device, and I used the Custom Field option as display device. (http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/ ... =7&t=31615)
Controlled by Basic macros (API functions).

Re: Link checkbox to writer table
Thank you.
Very interesting approach,
The only problem I have is, that the table is quite big (approximatelly 90 checkboxes) and I am not so sure document properties would be the right place to store this amount of information...

Re: Link checkbox to writer table
You should create a database table with a boolean field keeping as many checkboxes and row-IDs as needed and then you can create a Writer document (a report) with a table that depends on the database content.

Here is an another idea with macros:Is this possible without registering a data source?
The values are stored in the macro code.
