Question:

How do I set a default checkbox in a WinBatch dialog box?

Answer:

To set a default checkbox in a WinBatch dialog just set the variable before you put up the dialog.

 
areacode=1   ; Sets areacode box to be checked by default
callwait=1   ; Sets callwait dialog box to checked
dial9=1	     ; Sets dial9 to 1


remoteFormat=`WWWDLGED,5.0` 
remoteCaption=`Check the appropriate box(es).` 
remoteX=120 
remoteY=90 
remoteWidth=200 
remoteHeight=72 
remoteNumControls=4 
remote01=`4,16,204,DEFAULT,CHECKBOX,areacode,"If you are calling from within the &312 area code.",1` 
remote02=`4,28,204,DEFAULT,CHECKBOX,callwait,"Disable call &waiting.",1` 
remote03=`4,4,204,DEFAULT,CHECKBOX,dial9,"If &9 is needed to access an outside line.",1` 
remote04=`65,54,64,DEFAULT,PUSHBUTTON,DEFAULT,"&Done",1` 
 
SendKey("!3{+}")
