Checkboxgroup setSelected() problem

Question

Hi,
I have a number items read from a .txt file into a checkboxGroup. I have problem in selecting some of them automatically. Please help me in setSelected() function code:
//get selected automatically
         try {                   
             int numOfLines2 = 0;
            int count2=0;
            String theLine2 = null;
            FileReader fr4 = new FileReader("C:/CreatorProjects/Npad_PAIRS_NLP.prs");
            BufferedReader br4 = new BufferedReader(fr4);
            while ((theLine2 = br4.readLine()) != null) {
                numOfLines2++;
            fr4.close();          // close the file.
            br4.close();          // close the buffer
            FileReader fr5 = new FileReader("C:/CreatorProjects/Npad_PAIRS_NLP.prs");
            BufferedReader br5 = new BufferedReader(fr5);
            listPatientdata = new com.sun.rave.web.ui.model.Option[numOfLines2];
            while ((theLine2 = br5.readLine()) != null || count2 <= numOfLines2) {
                listPatientdata[count2] = new Option(theLine2, theLine2);
                if(count2<=ptftrs)      //ptftrs is predefined integer
                    checkboxGroup1.setSelected(theLine2);
                count2++;
            } catch(Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();    
   }I have no problem in using the code if I want all boxes unselected initially.
thanks in advance.

while ((theLine2 = br5.readLine()) != null || count2 <= numOfLines2) {
listPatientdata[count2] = new Option(theLine2, theLine2);
if(count2<=ptftrs)      //ptftrs is predefined integer
checkboxGroup1.setSelected(theLine2);
count2++;         
} catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();     My guess is to call setSelected after adding all options to check box group. Try something like:
String valueToSelect = null;
while((theLine2 = br5.readLine()) != null || count <= numOfLines2) {
listPatientdata[count2] = new Option(theLine2, theLine2);
if(count2 <= ptftrs)
valueToSelect = theLine2;
count2++;
checkboxGroup1.setSelected(valueToSelect);best regards
