To add to what Dawn and Charles have said, if the check box represents a
MacroButton field, there's a good chance you "check" it by double-clicking,
which substitutes the checked box font character for the unchecked box.

I have a form sent to me in Word that I have to put a "X" inside of a box
to
make a choice for different questions asked on this form. I cannot click
on
the box to put the "X" in. What is the secret?
