So, I'm experimenting with the MultiSelect control and Checkbox list control

 

Here's my observation:

 

The MultiSelect control writes to the database column like:

 

1;5;3  where each value is simply the numeric value of the SmartObject ID separated by a semi colon

 

 

The checkbox list control writes to the database like:

 

<collection><object parentid="94c19dea-652b-41d6-ba1c-c055e1cf337c" parenttype="Object"><fields><field name="ID"><value>5</value></field><field name="ID"><value>10</value></field><field name="ID"><value>11</value></field><field name="ID"><value>3</value></field></fields></object></collection>

 

 

 

So...question.  Is there a way to make the checkbox list control write 1;5;3 instead of <collection><object parentid="94c19dea-652b-41d6-ba1c-c055e1cf337c" parenttype="Object"><fields><field name="ID"><value>5</value></field><field name="ID"><value>10</value></field><field name="ID"><value>11</value></field><field name="ID"><value>3</value></field></fields></object></collection>?  

 

Thanks...

Hey  Rob,

 

Try this..

 

Instead of the Check Box list control drag the Choice Control onto the canvas, then under it's properties change the Data Type option to MultiValue.

 

Hope this helps!
