How would you get a checkbox to print in a report? Then how do you fill it with
an 'X'?

To all,
I've got a great workaround. I needed a checkbox for a logical field. I put a
single character field on the report and put a single line border around it. If
the field is true, the I used the canRender to change the text to an
"X", or leave it blank if false. Works great!

Thanks Ken,
I have your book, but it's at the office (I'm at home). I found a good enough
work around as described in an answer to my own post.

When you have the time, check out the Knowledgebase ... there's a bit in
the "Tips and Tricks" article for reports (Intermediate?) on using the
Wingdings font in a custom control ... I think I even put that control
in the dUFLP.
