From: SHARON on 26 Mar 2010 10:23 I have a form in Word 07 with multiple check boxes. I would like to check one box, and automatically have another check box get a check, instead of manually checking the 2nd one, which leaves room for human error. There are 2 instances of this on my form. Hope this make sense. -- Thanks, Sharon
From: Graham Mayor on 26 Mar 2010 10:40 For that you would need a macro run on exit from the first check box field (here Check1) to set the value of the second (here Check2) as follows If ActiveDocument.FormFields("Check1").CheckBox.Value = True Then ActiveDocument.FormFields("Check2").CheckBox.Value = True Else ActiveDocument.FormFields("Check2").CheckBox.Value = False End If -- <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> "SHARON" <SHARON(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:000A5F48-9328-44EC-888C-1DA06D514579(a)microsoft.com... >I have a form in Word 07 with multiple check boxes. > > I would like to check one box, and automatically have another check box > get > a check, instead of manually checking the 2nd one, which leaves room for > human error.

From: Jay Freedman on 26 Mar 2010 10:43 You'll need to use a macro.

From: SHARON on 26 Mar 2010 13:13 Graham/Jay... Thank you both for your feedback, unfortuantely i don't know much about macros....is there any chance you could reply back with the way i would create this macro, right from step 1? -- Thanks, Sharon "Graham Mayor" wrote: > Hah!
