I am using Microsoft Word 2010. I have a document with multiple uncheckable boxes (over 700 boxes). I would like to replace all the boxes, which I believe are wingdings, with a checkable box. From what I've read online I can't do it with multiple selected items all at once. Does anyone know if there a is macro that I could run to find and replace each wingding with a legacy check box?

Consider using Content Control Checkboxes instead. It will give you more flexibility.
No answer to basic question, sorry.

The simplest way to replace all your Wingding checkboxes (assuming they show as using the Wingdings font when you select one) with the real deal is to insert a content control checkbox into the document (e.g. replacing the first Wingding checkbox with the content control checkbox), then copy that to the clipboard and use Find/Replace, where:
Find:Font = Wingdings
Replace = ^c
