I want to check them within Word - first, i want to find a way of
adding blank square in front of the 4 items, and after I am done with
one of the items, I can insert a "tick" symbol, meaning that I am done
with the task.

Is there an automatic/easy way of doing this?

thanks.

Hi,

I am using Office Word 2003.

I am creating a list with the following tasks e.g.

Buy milk
Buy cereal
Go to grocery shop
Go to Tailor shop

I have typed the above four lines in Word 2003.

Is there a way that I can add automatically 4 square boxes in front
of these four tasks. So that, when I am done, I can tick off/check
that square... (something like the Tasks layout in Palm pilot) ???

Thanks

cheers
