Checkbox form

[Molly]

When I add a checkbox to my template, the document creates an X in the box
instead of a checkmark. Does anyone know how to change that? I can't find
the answer anywhere. Why would a check box button create an x?

thanks

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/download.htm#CheckboxAddIn for an exploration
of these.
