this?

Go to www.outlook-code.com and search for a code example that adds a recipient
object to the mail item.

Key questions:

1) Can the message have more than one To recipient?
2) Is the check box bound to an Outlook property?

In the meantime, see http://www.outlookcode.com/d/propsyntax.htm

Yes the message can have more that one To recipient and the check box is
unbounded.

Since you can have other To recipients besides the one the check box adds, you'll probably find it easiest to handle this in the Item_Send event handler. Note the syntax for referring to a control using the page and control names:

Function Item_Send()
Set myPage = Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages("Name of your customized page")
Set CheckBox1 = myPage.Controls("CheckBox1")
If CheckBox1.Value = True Then
Set recip = Item.Recipients.Add "name_of_recipient"
recip.Resolve
End If
End Function
