Consider using checkboxes instead of tick boxes. Otherwise, you can add just
a couple of macros for tick boxes and have them work. 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.

How can I avoid creating huge documents when I want to use lots of check
boxes. The problem seems to be that each check box has some visual basic
code
attached to it, but I don't really want to run code, I just want to be
able
to tick or untick the boxes.
