make form automation recognize the boolean state of a check box

[deaf toddy]

When automating a form, it would be helpful if I could make the exit macro of
a check box dependent on the boolean state of that check box. It would be
even better if I could enter a command such as "if check1=1 then
check2=enabled" or something similar. The current method of using macros is
cumbersome in many situations.

deaf,

Do you mean something like:

Sub RunOnExitCheck1()

If ActiveDocument.FormFields("Check1").Result = True Then
ActiveDocument.FormFields("Check2").CheckBox.Value = True
Else
ActiveDocument.FormFields("Check2").CheckBox.Value = False
End If

End Sub
