Grin assigning a file to a checkbox

Say I have 12 files for a project, but they are all standalone files.

I click on the "Screen Manager" icon and select "Add a new screen". I then select the "Check box 12" screen.

How do I attach each of my files to the correct check box?

Thanks in advance.

Re: assigning a file to a checkbox

Hi,
Well what you do is assign a variable to each check box, probable something like:
%FileName%. Now, when one of the checkboxes is checked it will set the variable to: "Checked", the default is "Unchecked".
Now on the main screen select the file that %FileName% refers to, and double click to get the File Properties. Go to the Conditions tab, and add a new Boolean Condition. Your Boolean condition will be:
"%FileName% = Checked". What this does is it says do not install this file unless this variable equals Checked. Simply do this for all of the files and everything should work out fine.
