I keep a Word table that tracks ongoing project information. The table
rows consists of "add to monthly", "initiative/project", "date" and
"note" I use alternate coloring to make the table easier to read. In
the "add to monthly" cell I have a check box, if checked I add this row
to the monthly report and/or the bi-weekly project meetings. I would
like to automate the following processes.

1. Have a button to create a new item that would
a. add new row to end of table
b. insert a checkbox in the first cell
c. Choose color a or b
d. add the current date to the "date" cell (this date should not
change once entered)

2. When I check the rows to be added to the monthly report, have a
process that extracts the checked rows to a new document.

Thank you
