Listbox as Check box

Hello,

If I have a list box and use it as check box is it possible to keep a specific value always checked even if one press clear?

I would like to keep "Total" in my list box even if you click clear.

Many thanks in advance for your help.

Best regards,

Carolin

Hi Carolin,

First you select Total from your list box and then click on Set Clear state option.

After that you can select other options also in list box and then click on clear. It will clear all other except the first one which you selected before click on Set Clear Set.

And also in Sheet properties add one trigger Select in Field for selecting specific option what you want.

Hi Carolin,

You can use following Action/Triggers to achieve this:

Action Type: Selection

Action : Select In field

then give the field name and value you want to get selected.

Once done, add another Action as :

Action Type: Selection

Action : Lock Field

and add the name of the field in which you wnat the selections not to be cleared.

You can use these Actions/Triggers on any event per your requirements.

Hope this helps!

Hi jsingh71.

If I choose Always one value select you cant select all data of the list box.

I think you should go for trigger.

Unfortuntely this doesn´t work as it is not highlighted. You cannot choose this maybe because its a LED check box.

Hi Carolin,

It will be highlighted only when first you have selected a value.

Hi Shyamal,


I think it will lock the field value and won't allows any other selections in the same field.

Hi Pradeep,
Yes, you are right. My bad 😞

Carolin Borchert : You can just give "Select In field" action on various events and skip "Lock field".
