I would like to change the control type on the ADVANCED SEARCH page of search_field_options
From select A checkbox

Yes, I can help you with that! In ASPRunner.NET, changing the control type from a dropdown (select) to a checkbox on the Advanced Search page can typically be done through the settings in the ASPRunner.NET interface.

Here’s a general guideline on how to change a field's control type:

  1. Open Your Project: Launch ASPRunner.NET and open your project.


  2. Navigate to the Fields Section: Go to the "Fields" section of the table where the search field is defined.


  3. Locate the Field: Find the field for which you want to change the control type in the list of fields.


  4. Edit Field Properties: Click on the field to open its properties.


  5. Change Control Type: Look for the option labeled "Edit control type" or similar. Change the type from "Select" (dropdown) to "Checkbox".


  6. Advanced Search Settings: After changing the control type, check the "Advanced Search" settings for that field. Ensure that the checkbox is enabled for advanced search.


  7. Save Changes: Once you have made the changes, save your project.


  8. Test Your Changes: Run your application and navigate to the Advanced Search page to ensure that the field is displayed as a checkbox.



Remember that the exact names of the options and the layout might differ slightly depending on the version of ASPRunner.NET you are using, but the general steps should be similar.

If you face any issues or if the changes do not reflect as expected, you might need to clear your cache or rebuild your project to ensure that the changes take effect.
