    Disabling multiple controls within a section

    Hey guys, so I have a section that contains 10 different options that can be chosen. Would like it set up so that if one of the options is chosen, the rest are disabled. Is there a way to do this at the section level? The alternative is to set up 9 individual conditions on EACH control stating that if one of the other items is checked...then disable it.

     Thanks in advance...

    Have you thought about using option buttons for this? With option buttons you can only select one.

    Re: Disabling multiple controls within a section

    Next question...when you use an option button, is it still possible to hide/unhide other controls/sections based on which option is picked? I'm guessing no, don't see that ability anywhere. That's probably the main reason why I've used checkboxes all this time.

     Thanks!

    *edit* Nevermind...I think I figured it out. Each option button has a different value when selected and from that I should be able to hide/unhide controls/sections, etc. :)
