I requested this information before and I want to thank Suzanne and Charles
for their response.

I have manage to get the tick boxes to work within a Word document and not
as a form.

The problem is that I have to create a number of documents from a template
and distribute to users. When the file is open on a different computer I have
problems using the check box.

Firstly, when the document is created, it does not have the macros "CheckIt"
and "UncheckIt".

Secondly, I get the error message: Run Time error 5941: The requested member
of the collection does not exist.

The question is how do I distribute the documents with the necessary macros
and AutoText?

many thanks
George
