Checkboxes - font style in formula

[DozAdmin]

I'm working on a report that is a form, I need many checkboxes. These will be "checked" manually but I'm looking for an easy way to insert the checkbox quickly.

I created a formula
Totext(Chr(168)+' ')

But with this I have for format to use wingdings everytime I insert it.

Is it possible to set the font style to wingdings with the formula? Other ideas?

Not sure why you using totext and adding a space at the end, as the space will be outside the box. But anyway, once you have placed the formula on the report and formatted the formula to wingdings, you can just copy and paste it to different locations.

Thanks - that was simple. didn't know the formatting would follow but guess that is obvious.

The space is there so I can instert it at the begining of the line that will have the checkbox to maintain uniform spacing on each line at each checbox.

Thanks
