Re: Selection box wizard question

John Shotsky
 

Not really - About the best I could do is add a user option to either check all
checklists or not, but usually they will want them all checked. It is a folder
full of individual html files that are to be merged into a single file. I'm
working with 227 such files now, because I need enough variety to find outlier
cases, such as URL's in the wrong place, etc. For my own purposes, I could just
run it with all unchecked, but users would not know how to do that. I may just
add that user option so they can change it from Y to N in the option.
Regards,
John

Hello,
I am not sure that I can help here or not, but I am certainly going to try.
Rather than put all entries with a preceding '_' into your list (which means
that they will be checked in that list), couldn’t you conditionally add the
entry with either the _ or not based on a set of conditions?

Thanks, Axel, that sounds like it will work for me.

As it is, I present

But what if they want only a couple of those many files?
I presume you know this already and don't want it: You can have a separate
Question first and depending on that present one of two wizards, either all
checked or all unchecked.

Or perhaps a way to dismiss that wizard and present one with all the
checkboxes unchecked. Either way would require some sort of action
other than cancel or ok.
That is easy. Have an unchecked pseudo-entry first "uncheck all" and close with
the normal "OK". Look at that entry first and if checked ignore all others but
reopen the wizard -- with another pseudo-entry "check all".

If the pseudo-entry is unchecked process the rest as normal.
