Using a Checkbox in Outlook Form Designer
 

I created a form with 4 checkboxes based on the message template. The
checkboxes are in both the "Edit Compose Page" and the "Edit Read Page".
When I use the form and select the boxes it will display the Checkmark. When
the form is sent the checkmarks are lost and do not appear in the checkbox on
the receiving end.

How do I keep from loosing the checkbox value when the message is sent?

Thanks

Sounds like you did not bind the matching controls on each layout to the same Outlook property. Check on the Properties dialog for each control, at the top of the Value tab.

Can you direct me on how to bind them. I'm new at this and don't know how to
bind the controls.

Many Thanks

As I said, look at the top of the Value tab of the Properties dialog for each control.
