Reference to a checkbox- multiple checkboxes stemming from one che

I

Ivanl

Hello,

I have been able to reference text in my protected form, but have not been
able to use a reference for a checkbox.

what I am trying to do is have Check1 as the main checkbox, and when
checkbox Check1 is checked it would also show up in another spot.

I tried to type in REF Check1 without any luck. do I have to insert another
Checkbox? How do I refer to the Check1?

Thanks,

Ivan

You want to check another box if check1 is checked?
Run the following macro on exit from Check1 to reflect the result in Check2

ActiveDocument.FormFields("Check2").CheckBox.Value = _
ActiveDocument.FormFields("Check1").CheckBox.Value

Hi Graham,

Is there any way that I can do it by not using macros? (e.g. by referencing
it somehow). The form is going to be sent to multiple people in the company
and I don't want to have the problem of macro security.

Thanks,

Ivan

No. You'll need the macro.
