Hi VSCD,

You can't put a formfield in a textbox. Perhaps you've previously put it into a single-celled table?

Hi Paul,

No, it wasn't a table. You can't put a form field check box in a table that you create within a text box either...

I know word doesn't want you to do what I'm trying to do, but I found away around it before, and just can't figure it out...

Anyway, I gave up and just used wingding boxes

Thanks for your thoughts though...

VSCD
