Tick This Off Your List: How to Add Checkboxes in Word Like a Pro!

Need to create interactive checklists or forms in Word? Adding checkboxes is easier than you think! Forget printing and manually ticking boxes – embrace the digital age. Here's a quick guide to adding those handy squares:

First, enable the Developer tab. Go to File > Options > Customize Ribbon and check the 'Developer' box in the right-hand panel. Click OK.

Now, the magic happens! In the Developer tab, you'll find the 'Controls' group. Click the 'Checkbox Content Control' icon (it looks like a little checkbox). This inserts a clickable checkbox into your document.

You can copy and paste the checkbox to create multiple items on your list. When you click the checkbox, it toggles between checked and unchecked. This is perfect for questionnaires, to-do lists, or any document where you need user input. Get ticking!
