Inserting a Check Box Into a Document/Table

I'm creating a performance evaluation document/table (two
columns). The user will fill in one column with
information, and then click the appropriate box to
indicate the person's performance. (For instance, exceeds
expectations or meets expectations.) I'm using xp, but I
don't know if the user(s) have the same version.

Can I create a box, perhaps using symbol, so that a user
can type an 'x' inside the box, or do I use the Form Field
Check Box for this? Also, how do I add hidden text for
instructions on the document that won't print?

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...nTheBlanks.htm and
especially the forms tutorials by Dian Chapman that this article links to.
You'll need form fields for the text as well as the check boxes.
