Use the following procedure to align text next to a check box in Word versions 4.00 and 5.00:


 * 1) Position the highlight at the starting point of the line and press CTRL+F5 to turn on the line draw feature.
 * 2) To draw the box, press the RIGHT ARROW key twice to draw the top of the box, then press the DOWN ARROW key once, the LEFT ARROW key twice, the UP ARROW key once, and end by pressing the RIGHT ARROW key once.
 * 3) Turn off line draw by pressing CTRL+F5.
 * 4) Now position the highlight on the endmark following the box and type the text that is to be aligned with the box. (If the box was created in the middle of the document, a paragraph mark will replace the endmark.)
 * 5) To align the text with the box, assign the superscript format to the text. To do this, highlight the text, set the Format Character “position:” field to Superscript, and press ENTER. Word will raise the text to the level of the check box.
