It appears that a check box on a report takes up "row" space even when its
visible property is set to "No" and the section is set to "Can Shrink". Can
you confirm?

Yep. Visible has nothing to do with "shrinkage".

The control's CanShrink property must also be set to Yes.
Since check box controls do not have the Can Shrink
property, it can not shrink. Actually, I believe that text
boxes are the only control that can shrink.

What I do to get the effect you are looking for is use a
small text box with BorderStyle set to Solid and set its
Format property to:
;"X";"";
