Hi,

Here is part of a class that i would like to use for records in a report control that displays items with checkboxes:

class CRecordPropertyCheck : public CXTPReportRecord
{
protected:
class CMessageRecordItemCheck : public CXTPReportRecordItem
{
public:
CMessageRecordItemCheck(BOOL bCheck)
{
HasCheckbox(TRUE);
SetChecked(bCheck);
}

virtual void OnClick(XTP_REPORTRECORDITEM_CLICKARGS* pClickArgs)
{
CXTPReportRecordItem::OnClick(pClickArgs);
SetCaption(IsChecked() ? "Yes":"No");
}
...

The caption is not set correctly this way.
Is OnClick the right place to change the caption when the user clicks the checkbox ?

Hi Arnie,

Instead of using SetCaption you should override GetCaption method inside your class, for example:

virtual CString GetCaption()
{
     return IsChecked() ? "Yes":"No";
}

And inside OnClick method you should only change your internal class state and call control redraw to update the view:

virtual void OnClick(XTP_REPORTRECORDITEM_CLICKARGS* pClickArgs)
{
     if (...) // any your conditions
     {
           SetChecked(!IsChecked());
           pClickArgs->pControl->RedrawControl();
     }
     CXTPReportRecordItem::OnClick( pClickArgs);
}

Best regards,
Sergey

Thanks Sergey,

I got it to work with one change to your code. I had to remove SetChecked(!IsChecked());

Must be because m_bChecked is set by
CXTPReportRecordItem::OnClick :
"m_bChecked = !m_bChecked;"
