There are a number of ways to create and use clickable checkboxes in
documents / templates. Some require protected or locked forms, others do
not. Take a look at the Checkbox template available at
http://www.addbalance.com/word/download.htm#CheckboxAddIn for an exploration
of these. My guess is that you are missing AutoText entries but no one can
tell unless you put in the actual procedures that are not working to give
some idea of which collection the error message is talking about.
