Control Element Forms 237
Exit Function
End If
Next I
The code corresponds to the previous example for determining a simple control element
model. It searches through all forms in the current text document in a loop and uses the
HasByName method to check whether the corresponding form contains an element with the
MyOptions name it is searching for. If this is the case, then the model array is accessed
using the GetGroupByName method (rather than the GetByName method to determine
simple models).
Checkboxes
The model object of a checkbox form provides the following properties:
Enabled (Boolean)
the control element can be activated
Tabstop (Boolean)
the control element can be reached through the tab key
TabIndex (Long)

FontName (String)

program-controlled access

RefValue (String)
