Linked checkboxes in form

Hi all,
In one of my reports I have a form with multiple checkboxes.
Is there an easy way (in the events maybe?) to automatically uncheck a checkbox when user selects another?
Can you please provide me with a example of code to include in an event?
(I'm using the user interface, I'm not coding)
Thank you!

Hello,
You can use the following code:
Code: Select all
foreach (StiComponent comp in Form1.Components)
{
if (comp is StiCheckBoxControl)
((StiCheckBoxControl)comp).Checked = true;
}
Thank you.

Thanks for your quick reply.
Where should I insert this code? Sorry I'm not very used to use code.
I tried this (in the Code tab) but got errors ("Type or name space name StiCheckBoxControl cannot be found"):
Code: Select all
using System;
...
namespace Reports
{public class Report : Stimulsoft.Report.StiReport
{public Report()
{
this.InitializeComponent();
this.PrinterSettings.PrinterName="...";
foreach (StiComponent comp in Form1.Components)
{
if (comp is StiCheckBoxControl)
((StiCheckBoxControl)comp).Checked = true;
}

It seems that it's better to use RadioButtonControls instead of the CheckBoxControls.
They have such behaviour by default.
Thank you.

In that case, RadioButtonControls will indeed better fit my need.
Thanks a lot!
