Checkboxes in full client vs the web

[pbare]

Hi all,

I hope someone can give me some clues or suggestions on how to fix the problem that I am encountering.

I designed a form (Fix/Inspect) to show several questions and check boxes to select an answer from (Strongly Disagree, Disagree, No Opinion, Agree, Strongly Agree)

The user is able to select any of the answers in the full client, but once it is on the web, the user can only select Strongly Disagree or Strongly Agree.

I have attached a sample of my screen to show what is happening.

Should I have used a different form type?

Any other ideas/Suggestions would be appreciated.


thanks
Pam

I have 2 pieces of input on this.

First, I would reformat to not use the group boxes so exensively. Group boxes is one of those controls where It doesn't always show exactly as you would expect.

Second, since you can only pick one item on each line I would convert the check boxes to be radio buttons. Use the same dd item for each unique grouping of radio buttons(each question).

Thank you for the suggestions...I will look into them. Have to confirm with my users if they will be ok with a radio button instead of the check box.

Besides the group box, is there any other way to draw boxes around items?

I don't see any other options in the tools but I might have missed something.

Thanks
