I am trying to insert a button into a document that when clicked will change
color or insert symbol. Also may be called a toggle switch. Used a lot in
multiple choice questions. Also used at the bottom of post message page to
indicate acceptance of terms, rules, etc.
 
Although there is a radio button control (in Word 2003 or earlier, on the
Control Toolbox toolbar; in Word 2007, on the Legacy Controls button of the
Developer tab), it's an ActiveX control that presents issues in Word
documents -- see
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa140269(office.10).aspx,
particularly the section on "Appropriateness for Task".

As an alternative, consider the scheme at
http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Add_Toggle_Objects.htm. You can download
Toggle_Objects.zip from the link about 2/3 of the way down the page.
