checkboxes question

-----------------------------------

with checkboxes, is it possible to create a checkbox, and make it so that it is already checked? or, is it possible to to refresh a certain checkbox so that i can set it to "checked" depending on settings? I am asking because i am making a program, and based on user-saved settings, I need some checkboxes to be checked, while others to be blank when the checkboxes appear on the screen. any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance

btw if u cant find it here it is


% The "GUI.CreateCheckBoxFull" program.
import GUI

procedure DoNothing (status : boolean)
end DoNothing

View.Set ("graphics:300;100,nobuttonbar")
var cb1 : int := GUI.CreateCheckBox (10, 10, "Check Box 1",
    DoNothing)
var cb2 : int := GUI.CreateCheckBoxFull (200, 10, "Check Box 2",
    DoNothing, GUI.RIGHT, '2')
GUI.SetCheckBox (cb2, true)
var quitBtn : int := GUI.CreateButton (230, 10, 0, "Quit", GUI.Quit)
loop
    exit when GUI.ProcessEvent
end loop
var cb1Status : boolean := GUI.GetCheckBox (cb1)
var cb2Status : boolean := GUI.GetCheckBox (cb2)
if cb1Status then
    put "Check box 1: filled"
else
    put "Check box 1: empty"
end if
if cb2Status then
    put "Check box 2: filled"
else
    put "Check box 2: empty"
end if


remember to use "createbuttonfull"

EDIT: createbuttonfull = createcheckboxfull

Methinks you mean "CreateCheckboxFull" (or however it's spelt).  Also, I have a nagging suspiscion that "GUI.SetCheckBox (cb2, true)" will set the status of the checkbox.
