Hello,



I have a word (Word 2007) document in which there are checkboxes.

Some of the information in these checkboxes is input dynamically from the server using xml.

For some reason, I cannot view the actual checkboxes but instead I see {checkboxes}.

I have tried to view the document on another computer and I can see the checkboxes properly, which seems to indicate that the problem is local.

How could I correct this?

Thank you.

What happens if you press Alt-F9?

This is a toggle switch for viewing field codes and viewing their results.

Note, I have not been able to reproduce { CHECKBOXES }.

What displays instead of the checkbox is probably { FORMCHECKBOX }.

Thank you for your help macropod. I have figured it out. In Word Options there is an option that says show field codes instead of their values that was ticked.

Thanks.
