If it still doesn't work, depending on the type of protection applied to the document, see if Design mode has been enabled. Turn it off on the Developer tab on the ribbon. Thank you for the suggestion. I'm unable to find any 'Unblock' option in the properties window. Also, the design mode symbol in the developer tab is greyed out I'm sure it's just something really obvious argh!

The following example is an activated Design Mode button from Word , and you will not see exactly the same in Word Afraid not, 'Protect Document' only shows the below and requests a password to stop it. The little drop down arrow also provides no other options The curious thing is you can tick the boxes if you open the doc from the original email. Thank you for trying to help.

There are four different methods to insert tick symbol in Ms Word. Of all, Alt X and Alt Code method requires remembering digit code.
While, the Insert Symbol and Autocorrect method are straightforward and relatively easy to remember. Of all these, the smartest way to insert tick symbol or tick in box is Autocorrect method as it is fastest and easy to remember. I wanted the nice, curved tick mark you show above, I found it in wingdings, then typed in various codes of my own in autocorrect but nothing happens with any of them.
Currently I am using office and it works fine. However, a year before I used Office and it worked the same. Autocorrect is just a shortcut, it should insert the same tick as you do it manually. One thing I would like to say is tick mark appears different for different font. The wikiHow Tech Team also followed the article's instructions and verified that they work.
