I’m trying to create a specialized checklist, using checkboxes. Will then use to keep track of projects, so I will use templates feature.
How do I create these checkboxes? Can’t find the setting for the bullets options.
Try showing the forms toolbar by going to:
View Menu -> Forms
If that’s not what you looking for, I believe that there’s a square box symbol under Insert -> Symbols
Hope this helps!
I’ve done this before by making a bulleted list, and changing the bullet symbol to a square box.
Arrrgh, must read the OP properly!
Format - bullets and numbering - customise - character
Or you can use a table to lay out the bullet points.
I didn’t read the OP either. This is what I thought of. Of course a special character and a table is the easiest what to just get a box drawn in the right place.
Actually, I need to be able to check off the completed (boxed) items. Does that make a difference?
You’ll need to ‘protect’ the form to use the boxes as check boxes. It’ll make the whole document locked except for letting you check and uncheck the boxes.
Do a search in Word help for “Create forms that users complete in Word”
Hope that helps!
Then using the checkboxes given in the Form toolsbar is the best way I can think off. Just go to the View menu, check the Forms toolbar. You shall be able to find the checkboxes on the toolbar.
Many thanks to all.
