Including Check Boxes on an MS Word Merge Document

23 bytes added, 17:39, 22 June 2009
General Procedure
You cannot merge information directly into a '''Check Box Form Field''' on the MS Word document to make it checked or unchecked. Instead it can be done as follows:
* Create a source ''Text Form Field'' on the MS Word document to store the value that determines whether or not the Check Box should be checked.
* Create the target ''Check Box Form Field''on the MS Word document
* Create a VB Script that runs automatically when the document opens and does the following:
::* Reads the value in the source Text Form Field and changes the value of the ''Check Box Form Field'' to '''True''' (which will make it checked), if the source value dictates that it should be checked.
::* Delete the source ''Text Form Field''
