I want to create a medical history Word file. My staff asks the patient questions about their history.
1. Many of the answers can be selected from checkbox lists. An example is the patient's list of medications. I would like to list common medications that my staff can check off. If one is not checked, I do not want it to apear in the final Word file.

2. I would also need text boxes to enter items that are not in a list.

3. I would sometimes need mutually exclusive items (such as right / left).

In each case, I only want the selected data to remain in the Word file. The idea is to get most of the information in final format in Word, so my transcriptionist only has to make minor additions and perhaps clean up the format so we have a nice medical history document.

I'm not a programmer. Is this fairly simple?
