Check box will insert text

[Kimberly]

Is there a way that when a box is checked in a Word Doc that a paragraph can
automatically be inserted. I am creating a template letter and if my
associates selects a certain option I need it to insert and print a
disclosure statement. Thank you

Say you had a checkbox with the name chkDisclosure on such a form, and in
the document, you had a { DOCVARIABLE varDisclosure } field, in the command
button click event. you would use something like

If chkDisclosure.Value = True then
ActiveDocument.Variables("varDisclosure").Value = "This is the
disclosure statement."
Else
ActiveDocument.Variables("varDisclosure").Value = " "
End If
