Sorry to keep on bashing on about this but I'm trying to get the
question straight in my own mind.
Is there a way, other than in VB, Word can reference the
checked/unchecked value of a check box in a Word data source?
I suspect I can't because when I need to refer to the value of an
unbound check box in Access I have to use VB (if the box is bound then I
use an expression reference the value of the particular table field to
which it's bound). As far as I can make out in Excel I need to link
the check box to a particular cell and then, if I'm using an Excel
funtion, base everything on the value returned by cboMyCbo to that
particular cell rather than to the value of cboMyCbo.
I suppose, in a nutshell, I want to know whether, as I suspect, if I'm
using a Word table as my data source I need to have a text value like Y
or N recorded in a field rather than use a check box.
