Having some difficulties with check boxes

Hi all,
I am trying to create a form in Outlook for employees to use to request a
change in their schedule. I would like them to have the option of requesting
a shift swap or a day swap in the same form. My question is this... they
only need to fill in 1/2 of the form for one kind of swap and would like them
to only have access to the fields they need to fill out. If they are doing
the other kind of swap, I would like them to click on a check box and have
the rest of the fields available to them. Is this possible in Outlook 2000?
I am relatively new to this so if you can speak in "dummy" I would appreciate
it.
 
Yes, this is possible with VBScript code behind the form. Yes, you'll have to learn to write a little code. The details depend on whether the check box is bound to an Outlook property and if so, which one, and if not, what page the check box is on. See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/propsyntax.htm

Thank you, there is an example of the exact code I am looking for in that
link. I am sightly familiar with code, so I should be able to decipher
this. Thanks again!!
