Our company uses quite a few MSWord forms that contain numerous check boxes,
text boxes, and drop down boxes, some of which are quite small due to the
number of them on a page. Quite often, only 1 or 2 check boxes are selected
on a form and you really have to look closely to find them. Is it possible
to have the check box (or text/drop down box) change color when selected so
it stands out on the page? I do not know Visual Basic and need a lot of help
here.

It would require a macro (VBA). The best place to get help would be the
