Hi,
I am using Progress 9.1E and I was wondering if it is possible to display logicals in a browse as Toggle-boxes?

Please help!!!

Thanks.

The feature was introduced into the product somewhere around OpenEdge 10.1. Therefore, if you want to achieve this with such an old Progress version you must fiddle a lot with overlaying browse cells. I don't have any code sample, maybe others have.

U can still achieve it easily using V9.
There are lots of ActiveX controls that can B used.
Also 4GL / ABL trickery
Have a frame with a of the view point.
combo widget that U move-to-top to display the combo widget as if in the browse / place the frame to the top as appropriate.
Happy playin
 
Of course you can always add the classic WingDings font to your progress.ini and then use a logical with a format CHR( 251 ) + "/":U + CHR( 252 ) and set the correct font during the ROW-DISPLAY trigger...
