Change Yes/No column display values

UPDATED 5/20/2022:  There is now the capability in a Yes/No column to specify custom button labels.  For example, instead of "Y" or "N" for column named [Archive?], we can specify "Archive" and "Unarchive" as the button labels.

I don’t believe there is a way to simply relabel the buttons. However, a Yes/No column is really just a special case of an Enum. You can create you own Enum column and use whatever values you wish.

This does mean you would need to update all places where you are testing the value of the column IF you are not already testing for “Yes” or “No” values.
