| | Is it possible to batch import check boxes? That is, let's say I want a certain check box checked on a large number of files, is there a way to batch update them all? I tried using the data import but it didn't work. |

| it should work if you take the field id and pass an "X" as the value you want. you many need to set other checkboxs to nothing when you are doing this.

| Anyone reading this tree, make *sure* you clear any other checkboxes that are associated with the choice you are trying to check. Do this by placing a space " " in the ones you are clearing. Point trims all spaces on import so those fields will be blank. If you just put in a null field like "", Point may not do anything with the field.
