calling toggle field one at time

I have no idea what you're asking here - I don't know what "so that if user dumb the value of toggle selected in file it should as per above norms" means, nor what you are expecting. Some random observations:

1. If the user can only select one toggle option at a time, you should probably use a radio button instead
2. If you were hoping to translate the selected items into the strings p1 and p2 selectively, you can use something like:
   setof(elem foreach(mapcar (toggle data) someForm->toggle_Entry->value list("p1" "p2") toggle && data) elem)
   which will return a list of strings, depending on which were selected. You could buildString that into a single string, but I've no idea what you really want here.
3. Posting questions in the forum solely addressed to me doesn't mean I'll necessarily be guilted into answering, and is quite likely you'll get ignored by one of the many other people able to answer because they are not called "Andrew"...

Hi Andrew/Guys,

am sorry for unclearance..let me go through this way..also i will keep above points while posting query.

i have made an toggle fields as -

toggle_Entry=hiCreateToggleField(
?name 'toggle_Entry
?choices list(list('aa "check1") list('bb "check1 & check2") ))

hiCreateGridLayout(
'checkframe
?frame "Check"
?items list(
list(toggle_Entry 'row 0 'col 0)
)
)

How should i retrieve data selected from checkboxes .Can you please provide an example.such that if i select "check1" in toggle field, value stored should be in string  form i.e -reuse p1    and  if i select "check1 & check2" in toggle field then value stored should be -reuse p1,p2.

Hope it clears some clouds.

Given that toggle fields can have multiple selections (that's the point), then essentially you can use the code I gave above, but with the strings changed:

listOfStrings=setof(elem foreach(mapcar (toggle data) yourForm->toggle_Entry->value list("-reuse p1" "-reuse p1,p2") toggle && data) elem)

this will return nil, ("-reuse p1"), ("-reuse p1,p2") or ("-reuse p1" "-reuse p1,p2") depending on what you've selected. You can then manipulate that list and convert into a string as you wish.

Or if you didn't want to use such cryptic code, you could just use:

theString=cond(
   (yourForm->toggle_Entry->aa->value "-reuse p1")
   (yourForm->toggle_Entry->bb->value "-reuse p1,p2")
)

although this wouldn't handle the situation where both are selected. You could add a condition for that too, of course.

Much Thanks, Andrew!
