In Word 2002, I was able to use the keyboard shortcut of Alt+X to check a
checkbox. This no longer works in Word 2007. Is there a new shortcut?

Perhaps you had something reassigned - ALT+X has [AFAIK] always been
assigned to the ToggleCharacterCode command. ie; 2122, ALT+X inserts ™ or
20AC, ALT+X inserts €.

I've always used the Spacebar to reverse the status of a checkbox.

In a protected form, Spacebar checks and unchecks a check box form field. If
you were using Alt+X to check a box, it may well have been the shortcut key
for a macro. In any case, Word 2003 and above use Alt+X to toggle Unicode
characters.
