Default Macro checkbox

Why not just apply bold formatting to the check box form field (and perhaps
make it a larger font size)?

Word, making a template. I used form menu, chk box form field. The
"X" (when checked) isn't dark enough for our taste so I'm trying to
design an alternative that would be DARKER.

So instead, I put in a text form field in a small cell with a border.
Type is regular text, one position, uppercase. Thus when I put in an
"x" it prints a bold "X" in the cell.

Rather than my way of having to put an "x" in the field, is there a
macro I could put in the text form macro on entry field that would
toggle a space (like the real chk box) between a checked and unchecked
box.
