I have created a form in Word and when a collegue is filling out the form, I
would like a separate document to open if a certain checkbox is clicked.
Thank you in advanced.

Create a macro that runs on exit from the checkbox and if the checkbox value
is true, have it open the document

If ActiveDocument.FormFields("Check1").CheckBox.Value = True Then
Documents.Open "filename"
End If

Replace filename with the path\filename of the document that you want to be
opened.

Thank you, that worked. However, if that box is checked I cannot work with
the form that the checked box is in. It continually sends me to the document
that the checked box is linked to. Is there a way to check the box, fill in
the form that it is linked to, then return to the original and complete it?
