How to set up checklist in Word?

[trinity780]

I have created a checklist and I would like for the user to be able to click
on the appropriate box and get an automatic check mark or "x" in the box or
circle. Is there a formatting technique I should use to get this done.

Use a checkbox form field (available on the Forms toolbar). You can also use
a macro button. Check out the following link -- you can replace the coded
characters with checked and unchecked box symbols:

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.
