Hi Chuck,
Thanks for the reply. The only table is a list of variables to hold checkbox values.
T_Group ------------ pk id integer member integer isHappy integer isFull integer etc.
The labels are in html.
I guess what I am asking is where I can apply logic to the checkbox bindings to make them correlate to a string binding? The label needs to point to a variable value, not a value, if that makes sense.
i.e. for variable "member" display string related to member "The group allows membership" for variable "isHappy" display string related to isHappy "The group is a happy group"
Please don't give me grief for my "parable" variables ;-)
David

I have a form with many wo:checkboxes. I would like to store the labels for the checkboxes in the database instead of hardcoding them in the html. Is there a way I can tie a specific checkbox to a unique value in a table of labels? For example:
<wo:checkbox name = "member" value = "1" selection = "$aGroup.member" /> <wo:string value= ??? />
I think you would want a custom component that contained this or maybe the entire radio group? The component would have the logic to find the label. I can't be more specific without knowing your database setup.
