Here you are once again (for about the 6th time in a month) - asking a question without showing us that you are making an attempt to LEARN VFP.

What have you tried on your own?

Have you even spent time looking at the VFP learning tools - such as the on-line VFP tutorial videos (

http://www.garfieldhudson.com/FreeVideos.aspx

or

http://www.sweetpotatosoftware.com/spsblog/2006/07/02/VisualFoxProVideos.aspx)

or the books at

http://www.hentzenwerke.com/catalog/zcatalogsubject.htm#visualfoxpro

?

but when i browse it, it is true.

What do you mean browse it ?

Unless you have modified a Grid to show Checkboxes as a Grid Object, you do not "Browse" a Form's checkbox.
You examine its values

 * --- Find Value of Form's Checkbox ---
 lThisCheckboxValue = ThisForm.Check1.Value
{/Code}

You need to spend some time looking at the above mentioned tutorial videos and getting to understand them.
You might want to pay particular attention to:

zhed,

In addition to what JRB-Bldr has suggested, you may also want to try the "F1" key from within your VFP development environment, as well as the FAQs in this forum prior to posting more questions:

Checkboxes in VFP can have either a logical or a numeric value. If you set the ControlSource to a logical field, then the checkbox values will be .T. or .F. and that's what will be stored in the field. In that case, ThisForm.Check1.Value will also be either .T. or .F.

What do you mean by "search" here?
