Problem Printing Customized Outlook Form using Word Template
You should to set the check box's Value property explictly, and the expression you set it to must be a True/False expression:

I created an OL form and used the Sub cmdPrint_Click code to print the form data. I got the oDoc.FormFields ("FieldName").Result = item.userproperties ("FieldName") part working. However, I'm having trouble with the checkboxes and radio buttons. I've tried using oDoc.FormFields("FieldName").CheckBox = item.userproperties("FieldName") but it doesn't work. Maybe I'm missing something or is there a different code that I need to use to transfer the data to the Word template? I hope someone has the answer to this. I've searched online and in Word and Outlook books to no avail. Thank you!

Problem Printing Customized Outlook Form using Word Template
Thank you so much Sue. I will try using the value property.
And how would this work with a radio button? Would it be the same code but "OptionButton" in place of "CheckBox"?

Problem Printing Customized Outlook Form using Word Template
Sorry, but I've never seen an option button control in a Word document. How did you do that?

Problem Printing Customized Outlook Form using Word Template
I've never done it before either. I was wondering if it was even possible.
I guess I'll just have to change the Outlook form to use checkboxes instead of radio buttons. I apologize but I have another question. Now that I've got the script to work, I'm having a problem with the oDoc.FormFields' appearing in the printouts. To better explain, I have written the code and what appears on the printed form. Code: oDoc.FormFields("NewspaperOrMagazine").Result = item.userproperties("Newspaper or Magazine") Printed form: [ ] Newspaper/Magazine: NewspaperOrMagazine It doesn't show this in all the fields, just a few. I can't seem to figure it out. "Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: Sorry, but I've never seen an option button control in a Word document.

Problem Printing Customized Outlook Form using Word Template
Why change the Outlook form? It's Word that doesn't have option buttons fields. You can decide how you want to show the property value in the Word document -- either with checkbox fields or text fields.

Problem Printing Customized Outlook Form using Word Template
ahhh I see what you mean
 )How can I show the value of the option button in the Outlook form to appear as a text field in the Word doc? I apologize for not being able to better explain what it is that I am seeing.

Problem Printing Customized Outlook Form using Word Template
The details are going to depend on the nature of the option button(s). Is it a set of buttons bound to one Outlook property? (What kind of property?) Then you may be able to handle just like a text field.

Problem Printing Customized Outlook Form using Word Template
In case it's helpful to anyone, this is what I used to deal with the problem
(in can be adapted for either option buttons or checkboxes): For counter = 1 to intBkList strField = Trim(objWord.ActiveDocument.Bookmarks(counter)) Set objPage =Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages("Message") Set objControl = objPage.Controls(strField) strField1 = objControl.Value If strField1 = True then strField2 = "¤" ElseIf strField1 = False then strField2 = "¡" Else strField2 = strField1 End If objWord.ActiveDocument.Bookmarks(strField).Range.T ext = Cstr(strField2) Next Forget option buttons/check boxes in Word: it's only being used for the printout so make sure the correct areas of your template are formatted to Wingdings and use this code to drop in the right symbol!
