I'm trying to add check marks on an evaluation template in Word. My check
mark goes next to the box, but not in it. Does anyone know how to get this
in the box? Thanks

You'll have to delete the X box and replace it with the check box

If you want a checkbox that can be checked/unchecked, you'll need to use a
CheckBox form field. If you're using Word 2003 or earlier, right-click any
toolbar and choose Forms. You'll also want to read up in Word's Help system
on how to create forms and "protect" templates or documents so that the
resulting forms are usable as such.

If you need a dynamic (clickable) checkbox, there are a number of ways to
create and use clickable checkboxes in documents / templates. Some require
protected or locked forms, others do not. Take a look at the Checkbox
template available at
http://www.addbalance.com/word/downl...#CheckboxAddIn

for an exploration of these. Some utilize code, others do not.
