No, I don’t get any errors.

Press Control+J to open the JavaScript console. Are there any errors in the console when you click on the checkboxes?

Try this:

var Field1 = getField("AUTH NO_REMOVED");
if (event.target.value != "service1"){
Field1.readonly = false;
Field1.fillColor = color.white;
Field1.textColor = color.black;
Field1.borderColor = color.transparent;
} 
else {
Field1.value = "";
Field1.readonly = true;
Field1.fillColor = ["G", 0.75];
Field1.textColor = ["G", 0.5];
}

I have a question. I have four check boxes , lets say A,B,C,D such that only one could be checked at a time.

I have javascript for each checkbox such that when a box is checked, some fields are disabled and when the same box is unchecked, the disabled fields are enabled again. For example, if box A is checked, then fields 1..10 are disabled and user can write only in fields 11…20. When A is unchecked, all 20 fields are writable.

What I would like to do is if box B (or C/D) is checked (which will imply box A getting automatically unchecked), then the fields disabled by box A are enabled again without having to uncheck box A itself. How can I achieve that? Any advice/tips?

The checkboxes have the same field name but different export value to make them mutually exclusive. Checkbox field name is Service and the 4 export values are service1, service2, service3, service4.

I am using the code below in the first checkbox (shortened version)

var Field1 = getField("AUTH NO_REMOVED");

var service =getField("Service");

if (event.target.value == "service1") // I tried using service variable directly, but it only disables the fields upon checking but does not enable them

{

Field1.readonly = true;

Field1.fillColor = ["G", 0.75];

Field1.textColor = ["G", 0.5];}

else {

Field1.value = "";

Field1.readonly = false;

Field1.fillColor = color.white;

Field1.textColor = color.black;

Field1.borderColor = color.transparent;

}
