Use formfield checkboxes and protect the document (or at least the section
containing the checkboxes) for forms. The checkboxes change automatically when clicked. If you really want to do it by macro, use macrobutton fields, with the checkbox symbol as the displayed text. When clicked, it changes the text to a ticked checkbox symbol. "jcabiao" wrote in message ... I am creating a form that can be completed in Word.

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. Please post replies and questions to the newsgroup so that others can learn from my ignorance and your wisdom. "jcabiao" wrote in message ... I am creating a form that can be completed in Word.

Thank you very much for all your help. I spent hours trying to create macros
and reading things that either did not apply or I just did not understand. This is so very helpful. I really appreciate all your help.
