Referencing Word field contents in a linked Excel worksheet

[Guest]

I have a multiple page Word form that contains a linked Excel worksheet. In
my Word form I have a series of check boxes that are also in my Excel
worksheet. Is there a way to have the Excel check boxes default to whatever
my Word checkboxes contain?

Not without some fany macro code, no. If this were text, you might have a
chance. But the contents of a checkbox isn't "visible" to anything but your
eyes and a macro.
