Question MsgBox launch when a Check Box Content Control is clicked

I'd like to program a message box to pop up when a checkbox content control box is checked.



I've worked with message boxes before, but not linked to a checkbox.

Is there a way to have this happen?

Thank you!

Yes. First you have to map the content control to a customXMLnode. You can easily do that using the Content Control Tools addin from my website: Content Control Tools


Assume you have mapped a checkbox titled "Check Test" then using this code in the ThisDocument module of the project, you can trigger a msgbox when the CC is checked.



Code:
Private Sub Document_ContentControlBeforeContentUpdate(ByVal ContentControl As ContentControl, Content As String)
  Select Case ContentControl.Title
    Case "Check Test"
      If ContentControl.Checked Then MsgBox "I'm checked"
  End Select
End Sub
