Apex_items and apex global arrays

Question

Hi,
I'm using apex_item.checkbox and apex_item.text via an sql report like this:
SELECT
id,
apex_item.checkbox(1,id) " ",
apex_item.text(2,name) "name"
FROM APEX_APPLICATION_FILES
WHERE REGEXP_LIKE(name,'txt');and an after submit process like this:
DECLARE
BEGIN
--Loop through the selected id
FOR i in 1..apex_application.g_f01.COUNT
LOOP
  IF apex_application.g_f01(i) IS NOT NULL
    THEN
       INSERT INTO INC9_TEST(t2)values(apex_application.g_f02(i));
       wwv_flow.debug('MY PROCESS:' || APEX_APPLICATION.G_F02(i));
  END IF;
END LOOP;I've two rows sample data like:
Id  name
1   abc
2   defWhen I select the checkbox for Id 2, it keeps returning Id 1 in the apex_applicaiton.g_f01 global array instead of Id 2. But If I select both checkboxes, then it correctly loops through with id of 1 and 2. Does anyone know why this is happening and what the fix is for this strange behavior?
Thanks

OK - I did explain that on the thread I linked to. You need to have the checkbox values set to the row numbers. This can be done using something like:
APEX_ITEM.CHECKBOX (1, '#ROWNUM#')Now, if the user checks any checkbox(es), the value(s) submitted will be row numbers.
You can then use this to retrieve the NAME value for the same row:
DECLARE
vROW NUMBER;
vNAME VARCHAR2(100);
BEGIN
FOR i IN 1..APEX_APPLICATION.G_F01.COUNT
LOOP
  vROW := APEX_APPLICATION.G_F01(i);
  vNAME := APEX_APPLICATION.G_F02(vROW);
  ... etc...
END LOOP;
END;So, we first get the row number for each checked item and then use this to get the name value for the corresponding row.
