How do i place a checkmark in a checkbox in a template?
I have created a template in Word with blank checkboxes and would like people
who come in and fill out the form to be able to check the box. I know I've seen this on several forms before, but cannot figure out how to put this option on the Word template that I've created. Any suggestions? |

Did you use a check box form field? Have you protected the form? See
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...nTheBlanks.htm and especially the forms tutorials by Dian Chapman that this article links to. -- Suzanne S.

You may simply want to protect your document for forms. Does this do what
you want? 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. -- 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.
