# Set up control event procedure - Check box

For a control of type Checkbox, you can set up a control event procedure with actions that are done in a specific sequence. A control event procedure has one action or a series of actions that are done on the On checked changed control event. So, the procedure is started if the check box is selected or cleared.

Use the **Up** and **Down** buttons to define the action sequence.

Optionally, you can run an action under specific conditions. For conditions, you can use functions and variables that are available for the application or form.
