Hi people,




I have been rejecting ALOT of documentation because operators filling boxes from a document Wrong, i wanted to know if there is a way to selec a box or
put a "X" in a box depending of a certain score number from other part of the document.

As you can see in the next image:



Operators must select a number between 0 to 3 and then depending from that number sele a risk score and mark with an "X" the check box,the boxes are merely a table so i dont really know if there is a command to do this automatically that would be awesome.

A im open to any tutorial, link or explanation, thanks in advance and have a nice day c:

Provided those filling the form can use macros, and they have Word 2010 or later (as Word 2007 and earlier do not have check box content controls), then what you ask is relatively straightforward using the exit event of content controls to evaluate the results entered and check the appropriate check boxes.

For more information and background, my old friend Greg Maxey has a useful tutorial at http://gregmaxey.com/word_tip_pages/...om_events.html and http://gregmaxey.com/word_tip_pages/...l_entries.html

His site has lots of valuable information about the use of content controls.

Yesterday, in another forum thread, I posted the attached document which demonstrates an unrelated use of the Exit event to produce calculated values, which can be used to see how the Event works in practice, before you dig in and alter your form.
