Re: Subfile record selection without option field

I think you have those switched:

SNGCHCFLD (single choice field) is the round circle that lets you choose a
single item. It works like a radio button.

MLTCHCFLD (multi choice field) is the square checkbox that lets you select
multiple items from a list.

MLTCHCFLD is a round circle, where you can list several items of which no
more than one item can be selected at one time.

I like using them because today's users already understand how they
function and they are mouse users. Coupling *AUTOENT with radio buttons
and checkboxes makes a mouseable change a one-click event. With barcode
readers, scanners, voice control;s, and other available solutions, the
keyboard is becoming an anachronism.

I'd already tried SNGCHCFLD which gave me a rather ugly checkbox on the
left of the field. Will try the *NOSLTIND parameter after the Easter
break. Funny though, I thought we'd never used SNGCHCFLD before. Thanks
anyway!
