Is there a way using this form set to automatically get something like meeting dates and display them as check boxes?
I can do about 90% of what I want so far but haven't seen this option available but could just be over looking it.

Get Check box fields from a database

You can do this as a customization using the gform_pre_render hook.

You would add some code to your functions.php using that hook to populate a set of check boxes with values pulled from your database.

Glad that helped. Please let us know if you need any help implementing it.

That is the function name, you'd call it whatever you want. That example uses populate_dropdown because the function in that example is called populate_dropdown.

I suggest you read over this post... it discusses how to populate a checkbox field dynamically:
http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/dynamic-checkboxes
Checkbox fields are actually one of the most complex fields to work with in Gravity Forms, primarily because they aren't really one field. Each checkbox is an individual field and the Checkbox field can consist of multiple checkboxes. So it's more complex than most.
