Thanks.<br />

Guess I need to review the capablilities of the various controls. &nbsp;<br />

I did a quick look, don't see anything from flyster. &nbsp;I do see how a pull down could be used, I could do that. &nbsp;I'll have to read up on the ActiveX option you mention.

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I have a WORD form with multiple choice questions on it. &nbsp;The questions are followed by checkboxes where the student picks an answer. &nbsp;I have code in Excel that processes the WORD form &nbsp;to see if the student selects the right answer, and code that looks to see if the student selects more than one answer. &nbsp;If they choose more than one answer, then no credit would be given.<br />
<br />
It would be better to have code in the WORD form that does not allow the student to pick more than one answer. &nbsp;If they pick a second checkbox, then the first one they select has to be erased somehow.<br />
<br />
Can this be done using vba?<br />

Grouping Checkboxes In Forms

Microsoft Excel topics include formulas, formatting, VBA macros and user-defined functions, and everything else related to the spreadsheet user interface, including error messages.

Microsoft Excel

Microsoft Word is a commercial document editing program that is part of the Microsoft Office suite. It features numerous text-editing tools for creating richly formatted documents, along with tools for the use of macros in Word documents. Word's native file formats are denoted either by a .doc or .docx file extension. Plugins permitting the Windows versions of Word to read and write formats it does not natively support, such as the OpenDocument format (ODF) are available. Word can import and display images in common bitmap formats such as JPG and GIF. It can also be used to create and display simple line-art.
