Use a variable to select an ActiveX control Checkbox by name (in Word from Excel)?

Question

What is wrong with this line of code?

WordDoc.CheckBoxNum.Value = CheckBoxVal

To be clear, I am working with an ActiveX control \"Checkbox\".

Answer 1

AFAIK, you can use:

WordDoc.InlineShapes(CheckBoxNum).OLEFormat.Object.Value = CheckBoxVal
