Gets or sets a value that determines whether check box controls should be generated for entry fields with two explicit field choices (as defined in check field Rules).
object.UseCheckBoxes as Integer
A check box control allows users to set or change the value of a field to true or false. This control displays a tick when selected; the tick disappears when the check box is cleared.
The recognition engine will automatically generate a check box control when it detects an entry field associated with two explicit field choice values (ie. Y,N) that are defined within Check Field Rules. Setting this property to False for the form will prevent check box controls from being generated. An entry-capable combo box or text box (if UseComboBoxes is also set to false) will be generated instead .

An entry field on a form with UseCheckBoxes set to True. |
The same field on a form with UseCheckBoxes set to False. |
Changing this property at run-time will cause the dynamic recognition engine to recreate the form and will result in the loss of any data that has been entered by the user. This property should not be changed within the Form events OnReceive or OnRefresh.
