Insert a tick box in Word

MS Word form toolbar tip

To insert a tick box in your Word (2003) document:

  1. Display the Forms Toolbar (click on the View Menu, select Toolbars, Forms)
  2. Click on the picture of the tick box
  3. To activate it, you must protect your document for use as a form (click on the Tools Menu, select Protect Document...for Forms)

To tick the tick box, click in the box with the mouse or press the spacebar.


Note: Despite the picture displayed in the toolbar, this action places a cross in the box, not a tick!
