How do I insert a checkbox in an unprotected section in Word?
Trying to create a template with two sections. Section 1 is protected with
text boxes and checkboxs active. Section 2 is unprotected with freeform text. I am trying to place a checkbox in section 2 so the users may use it to check mark their selections. |

GNO
Thanks for mentioning the move. Perhaps I will go off and try to figure out how to redirect to the new page. Don't know where to start.

Are you using FrontPage to publish? If so, I can tell you how to do it.

Suzanne,
Yes I use FrontPage and I am all ears (or in this case eyes). -- Greg Maxey/Word MVP See: http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/word_tips.htm For some helpful tips using Word. Suzanne S.

How do I insert a checkbox in an unprotected section in Word?
In the code, in the HEAD section put something like:
meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="1;URL=http://www.addbalance.com/index.htm"LINK HREF="Rev" The content value is number of seconds to wait before changing to the new page. I don't know if you can set it to zero but you can try. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/ which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.

How do I insert a checkbox in an unprotected section in Word?
You can set it to zero, but it's not advised because this effectively
disables the user's Back button, which can be very frustrating. It drives me crazy when I hit pages like this and end up having to drop down the arrow beside Back to get back to the page that should be the previous one. -- Suzanne S.

The only way to redirect that I know of is with the old page.

Charles,
Actually, I do have the old page, but I renamed it when I made the major changes. That was probably my mistake. |

So, post the page with the old name and put the redirect code in the header
of the old page. It will give people with the old url your new content without you having to update both pages. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/ which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.
