Default Check Box Short Cut?

There are some Unicode assignments for checkmarks, but unfortunately
they are not very universally available. For some different characters
available see http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/rexx/...bols.htm#ticks

A working checkbox would have to be entered through the Control Toolbox or the
Forms toolbar.

Just a visible checkmark or checkmark-in-a-box can be entered with Alt + 0252 or
0254 in Wingdings font.

A simple checkmark can be entered using Marlett font and entering the letter "a"

Is there a way to insert a check box in text? I was trying to find a windows
shortcut for a text check box. Like ALT + 0761 does one exist?
