Hi Rikil,

To insert check boxes (via the SYMBOL field) in a mail merge document use an IF test coded along the lines of:
{IF{MERGEFIELD Check1}= x YES NO}
where the "YES" and "NO" in the field code are replaced with the appropriate Windings characters, via Insert|Symbol

Alternatively, you could use:
{SYMBOL {IF{MERGEFIELD Check1}= x 254 168} \a \f Wingdings}

Note: The field brace pairs (ie '{ }') for the above example are created via Ctrl-F9 - you can't simply type them or copy & paste them from this message.
