Referencing a check box result within a formula

[Sean N.]

I am trying to create an "If" formula that uses a check box result as the
operator. What should I reference to get a desired result when a check box
is marked as opposed to unmarked?

Hi Sean,

Not possible via field coding, unfortunately, so you'll need to use a macro. For example, with a formfield checkbox named 'Check1'
you could set the following as an 'on exit' macro for that field:

Sub CheckState()
If ActiveDocument.FormFields("Check1").Result = 1 Then
'Whatever you want to do if the value = TRUE
End If
End Sub
