Change check box value to true if text box has any value

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 16

I would like to change 2 check box values to true (checked) if one text box has any text in it. So

If textbox.value = true, then checkbox1.value = true and checkbox2.value = true.

    Try something like this in both checkboxes Default:

    !IsBlank(TextBox.Text)

    and just to be safe, if its a text input, in its OnChange

    Reset(CheckBox1);
    Reset(CheckBox2);

    Wow, you're amazing! I have a similar question where I want checkbox3 to be checked if checkbox2 is checked and vice versa.

    For CheckBox3, just do 

    CheckBox2.Value

    Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure you can't also do vice-versa, as this would throw a circular reference error, since they would both be directly affecting each other.
