Default Check box question (slightly different question)

I've never tried to do this, and I'm having a hard time envisioning exactly
what you are trying to accomplish. My gut feeling is that it would not be
possible, but can you provide a better description of where the merge fields
would be placed?

Is there a way to do a mail merge into a document that has been protected

as
a form. Google has been of little help.
My inclination is that it can not be done, but I am an amateur compared to
you.

If you create the form as a template and instruct users to install it in

the
folder assigned to user templates or workgroup templates *and* if they

have
"Trust all installed templates and add-ins" checked on the Trusted

Sources
tab of Tools | Macro | Security, there will be no dialog.

I created an MS Word Form (template) that contains 3 checkboxes and 1
textbox. I coded the checkboxes so that when one is checked, the other

two
are unchecked. I am trying to emulate what grouped radio buttons do,

where
you can only click one at a time.

When I execute the document, I get the dialog box that askes me if I

want
to
enable/disable macros. I don't want that to pop up when users execute

the
document. Is there a way to stop that from happening without asking

the
users
to change the security setting in MS Word, or is there another way of
handling what I'm trying to accomplish?

Thank you
