I know Office 2007 doesn't support checkbox Content Controls, but that can easily be worked around with a dropdown Content Control.
I'm not familiar with Content controls (I don't use Word often); I'll look into this. Also, I may be using Office 2007, but I don't have control over the final user's version, and would like it to be compatible back to 2003 if possible. Are they compatible with versions that old?

These forms have gone through legal reviews, so they usually can't be redesigned. I have to recreate them as they originally were created, so I can't change the checkboxes.

Thanks again for all of your assistance, I'm going to try to get through setting up the code today so I'll hopefully know if it is working the way I need it to soon, or if any other issues crop up that I wasn't anticipating.
