How to use 'Record Selectors' to use selected records... 1

[omniaccess]

I have a list of items on a form with checkboxes next to each item so the client can select individual records to act upon (delete, print, etc.)

I want to add the ability for them to use the record selector to the left of each row to also select items. I have looked through all of access help and searched through the access forums, but have not found out how to reference the record selectors. My goal would be to have the user select 5, 10, 20 records with the record selectors and then click a button that says "add selected records to action list". This would take the selected records and then add a check in the checkbox next to the item. Or, have a button that lets them act directly upon the selected items.

Again, my problem is that I cannot find any code to refer to the state of these record selectors.

Any help would be appreciated.

I was just working on the same thing. Found

Looks like if you use a button, you'll need to restore the selected records, since they are unselected when another control receives focus.
