Activate check box form field

S

Steve C

Using Word 2003, I wish to use programming to check a check box that was
added using the Forms toolbar. My current code using the following line to
locate the check box, which is bookmarked as "Plumbing":

ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("Plumbing").Range.Select

What code can I use to then check the check box (i.e., place an X in it)?
Thanks!

Answering my own question: I needed the following code:

ActiveDocument.FormFields("Plumbing").CheckBox.Value = True

And I trust you know that you don't need to select the checkbox first...
