If all you want is checkboxes that a person can click and send back, without
any other changes, you want checkboxes from the Forms toolbar in a document
protected for forms. This is what Word calls an "online form." Check this in
help. For more about online forms, follow the links at
http://addbalance.com/word/wordwebresources.htm#Forms or
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/FillinTheBlanks.htm especially Dian
Chapman's series of articles.

No vba is involved, but the document must be protected for forms.

Hope this helps,
