    Form Check Box is Shaded


    I have several check boxes on a form, some from a table and a few with a control source. One of these check boxes is shaded, all the others are clear. The control source contains numbers such 40, 41, 42. When one of these numbers is present I get the desired check mark, but why is the box shaded?

    The field is number type, not a Yes/No?

    Not sure what you mean by 'shaded'. A checkbox bound to a number field will show solid if there is no data.
