Depends on what kind of checkbox it is? How did you insert it into the
document?

Hi Cindy,
I used the 'Control' toolbox and added it from there.

Hi Mattias,

OK, you'll find a general discussion, from a VB(A) POV, on
how to address ActiveX controls embedded in Word docs at

Basically, you have the choice of use the document object
or the Shapes (or InlineShapes) collection to pick up the
control.
