Default check box

max

Sounds like you are still in the "design mode". Go back to the tool bar
that you had when you placed the check box (viewtoolbarscontrol toolbox).
In the upper left corner is an icon that moves you in and out of the design
mode, move out of the design mode. As to the size of the box, it is as it is
and cannot be changed.

I hope this helps
