Change the editor to 'PC Editor' and take the menu.

Include -> Characters -> SAP Symbols

In a window u create a text element..

Then in the Properties of the text element there is tab with WEB PROPERTIES.. In that give a field name and the Input type ( list box will be there ) , give it as check box ,,

Thats it!! u will have a check box in that text element !!!!!!

No need to upload anything, just use SAP symbols.

For unmarked checkbox create a new text field and add symbol <727> in it.

For marked checkbox, use symbol <697>.

They do not show on print preview, but you can see them on paper or for example on .PDF output.

You can see a list of SAP symbols in transaction SO10, menu path Insert / Character / SAP symbols.

you can check the symbols using SO10. insert->character ->SAP symbols.

there you can see all the symbols and their representation.

Go to the Text node of the corresponding window.

go to the change editor window.

in the change editor window click on INCLUDE from the menu bar.Under that INCLUDE select Character,under that select SAP SYMBOLS to display a checkbox in the smartform.

you can load images of check-boxin bmp format, both Checked & Unchecked, by tx. SE78 & use these based on the appropriate conditions in your Smartform.

This is the method I have adopted in all the smartforms. Hope this helps...
