The check boxes from the Control Toolbox are ActiveX controls, and it is macro security that forces Design mode when you open the document. I do not recommend you to reduce macro security. Instead, delete the ActiveX controls and make use of ordinary form fields (which you can insert from the Forms toolbar).
