SUMMARY
In Word you can select or clear a check box using the built-
in Word dialog boxes. For example, the Background Repagination option is a
check box that can be turned on or off (on the Tools menu, click Options,
and then click the General tab.) This functionality can be accomplished
using a Visual Basic for Applications routine (macro) that you create.

http://www.microsoft.com/mcsp/For more information about the support options available from Microsoft, please see the following page on the World Wide Web: http://www.microsoft.com/support/supportnet/overview/overview.asp In Visual Basic for Applications, a check box in a dialog box has a value of True (-1) to set a selected state, or a value of False (0) to set a cleared state. The following Visual Basic example turns the Background Repagination option on or off each time you run the macro. When the Background Repagination check box is selected, its state is True (-1); when the check box is cleared, its state is False (0). Using the logical Not operator, you can switch between the True and False states each time you run the macro. That is, if the state is True, it switches to Not True (False), and if the state is False, it switches to Not False (True).
Another method you can use checks the state and, dependent upon the state, sets the opposite state using an If...Then...Else statement. Using this method, you can also perform an action based on the current state. For example:
NOTE: When you use Options.Pagination=True, the option is turned on; when you use Options.Pagination=False, the option is turned off.
