Hi gang,

I’m hoping I can get some help with an issue i’m having with CL. On the first slide I’m trying to have one button capture all the cells. But I can’t seem to get the CL correct for it. It keeps giving me this error or duplicate definition  
 ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex031/uploads/desmos/original/2X/d/da4b0753907b55c134bf35ac260bdff915d12a1d.png) .

I’m trying to avoid multiple buttons for each table and just use but can’t seem to figure out what’s going wrong with my CL.

Here’s the [screen](https://teacher.desmos.com/activitybuilder/custom/60491016196ea50d250611ae) I’m working on.

Thanks!

You don’t need multiple buttons, but each capture needs a different name. You have four of each and it doesn’t know which value to capture. If you want check1, check4, check7, and check10 in one list, in a graph, you can make numberLists from the histories of each capture and use join( ) in the graph to combine them all.
