How can I find the name of a checkbox?

Hi All,



I have a situation where I have several individual names with checkboxes so I can select the necessary individual(s).  These checkboxes are in a CheckListBox object.  When I use the object spy to try and obtain the name of a particular checkbox I can't select anything other than the CheckListBox, not the individuals checkboxes.  I was thinking maybe text recognition but I don't know if the checkboxes are tied to the individual names or not?



Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    When you go in the object properties from the Object browser, look for the "items" property and you should be able to input a number which is the index of the item. Your checkboxes are probably an index of the checkbox list. Try different numbers (0 to whatever) and look at their properties, you should find what you are looking for. 



    Sorry for not being clear on this, if you need further explanations just say so



    Cheers
