Re: Reference to a checkbox- multiple checkboxes stemming from one che

[Graham Mayor]

You want to check another box if check1 is checked?
Run the following macro on exit from Check1 to reflect the result in Check2

ActiveDocument.FormFields("Check2").CheckBox.Value = _
ActiveDocument.FormFields("Check1").CheckBox.Value

Hi Graham,

Is there any way that I can do it by not using macros? (e.g. by referencing
it somehow). The form is going to be sent to multiple people in the company
and I don't want to have the problem of macro security.

Thanks,

Ivan

No. You'll need the macro.
