Default Question to Smarter Folks than I

SgtMajor,

Is your checklist a Word protected form? If it is and if all of the
checklist dropdown boxes have just three entries "N, Y or N/A," how is one
or more being left blank? Or do you have a "blank entry" set as the defualt
for each question?

If that is the case then you will need to do some validation on field entry
and probably before save or print. This may get you started

It seems everyone always misses at least one of the drop down boxes
which creates a problem.

Is there some way to create a checklist in "Word" preferably will use
anything right about now...(Smile)..... that the form would NOT be
completed until each box is properly selected with a response?--

Any help would be appreciated.
