=IF check box checked THEN "P"

[Bod]

I'm trying to find a way in Word to make a text string (possibly a single
letter) appear if a checkbox is checked.
We have 4 types of change note. Client Change Note being the highest down to
Design Change Note.
There are tick boxes for the user to indicate which it is.
At the top of the doc is written "Change Note"
I want to use an IF formula to make whichever type is ticked show up at the
top.
This may not be the best way to skin this cat, but that's my idea so far.
It is not currently a protected form.
I don't want to use a macro if I can help it. I see from other posts that
there is some way use check boxes without protecting the form but from what
people say that appears to use a macro (I can't download zips on my work
machine, so I haven't investigated further).
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Hi Bod,

If you're referring to checkbox formfields, they:
a. only work in documents protected for forms; and
b. cannot be tested via IF fields - you need a macro attached to their 'on-exit' property.
