Even in VB no isChecked. in VB we use check1.check.

and I have suggestion again but it will break all code:

  replace: setText(edit1, "Hello" & getText(edit2))
           if isChecked(check1) then setCheck(check1,0) end if
           
  to: Text(text1, "Hello" & text(text2))
      if check(check1) then Check(check1,0) end if

  because it saves typing
