Hi all,
I'm struggling to get a default setting for a checkbox in a record form.
What property should I set to what value, in order to get a checkbox to
adapt "checked" as a default?
I've tried so far:
Checked value: 1
Unchecked value: 0
Default Value: "Checked" (chosen from the list [checked, unchecked])
Checked value: 1
Unchecked value: 0
Default Value: 1
These two don't work out anything.
And checking the checked-checkbox (still following me?  ) in the
Format-tab makes the checkbox to be checked always, independant of a value
in the database.
A suggestion, anyone?
Thanks in advance.

Did you use the checkbox from "Forms" or "HTML" on the Properties page?
I always use the one on "Forms", set checked to -1 and unchecked to -0
(which has always necessary to get the checkbox to appear checked). With
Default Value set to "Checked", it works for me.
I have CCS 1.0.7

From the 'forms' tab.

Ehh... well... no, not really (but thanks nonetheless).
I use PHP (and do not have any VB knowledge), so I could not get your
example to work with a database...
I gave up pretty soon (I didn't have much more time) and decided to use
radiobuttons (with caption "Yes" and "No) instead.
I know it's not a very elegant solution but it works...
But thanks for your time...
Maybe in some point in the future, i will investigate what the problem is..
(and then, if it's rocket-science, share it with this NG )
