Which kind of check boxes are you referring to? Legacy form text boxes? Content controls check boxes?

Word 2007 does not have content control checkboxes built in. They do have legacy checkbox controls which work as checkboxes when the document is protected for forms.


Here are some resources:
Add Interactive Toggle Objects to Simple Word Documents
Add Classic Form Controls to the Word 2007/2010 Developer Tab
Content Controls Custom Checkboxes

Thanks for the reminder (I no longer have Word 2007 installed anywhere, so I couldn't double-check this myself). You will also have to consider the ActiveX controls check boxes (not recommended).
