See attached. I've reverted to using the custom document property in conjunction with the checkbox, as that's simpler to implement with the required macro. As you'll see, the macro is pretty simple; it's also easily converted to use with a checkbox content control, for example.



Simply extract both files to a common folder.

Default What might be keeping the macro from running?

Paul, thank you. I can imagine you are tired of hearing about this one, and only wish I could give something in return.

I see that your Update macro is specific to the Form page.docm, that is, it is in a different module from the rest of my macros. It is not running; that is, whether I check the check box or uncheck it, nothing appears to happen; no text from Text1 comes in, nothing moves.

If I unprotect the document temporarily, I can run the macros I have in my normal.dotm. Could there be some setting I have that's preventing yours from running?

Cordially,
Philip
