Default How do you create a box with a "check" mark...

Word2003

I want to create a box with a "check" mark (not an "X") and have the option
to turn it on and turn it off as needed.

(Sometimes I want the check mark and sometimes I do not).

I have the WingDings symbol but that doesn't help.

Thank you.

There are a number of ways to create and use clickable checkboxes in
documents / templates. Some require protected or locked forms, others do
not. You can't get a check mark in a locked form checkbox. Take a look at
the Checkbox template available at
http://www.addbalance.com/word/downl...#CheckboxAddIn for an exploration
of these.
