[AccessD] Checkbox contents disappear in Word

Susan:

When I really  needed it to say something besides yes and no, or 0 and -1, I
put an unbound box on the report and set the value in the Format event of
the detail section.

Thanks Charlotte -- of course you're right. It just surprised me at first. I
changed the Check Box format at the table level to Text Box. Interestingly,
the bound report still displayed check box controls. I had to delete the
original and replace them -- now it displays Yes and No. Not really what I
wanted, but works.

Publishing a report to Word puts it in rtf format, which doesn't properly
handle the graphics in Access reports.  This has been that way forever.  One
of the reasons I always hated the Publish to Word "feature".
