Checkbox macros not working in Microsoft Word 2003

Using Visual Basic Editor, I made an Employee Performance Review form that automatically calculates an employee's total score as check boxes are checked. Everything worked perfectly when I made it, but since saving and closing the program, the check boxes no longer work. They only show up as pictures - not as working check boxes that can be clicked. They don't even have a "properties" option. The document was saved as a "Word 2007 Macro-enabled Document" and the security settings on my computer are set to "Medium" so that Word asks me if I want to enable macros when the document is opened. Regardless of whether or not I click "enable" or "do not enable," the check boxes won't work. I made another quick document with check boxes to see if it had the same problem and it does as well. As soon as the document is saved, closed, and re-opened, the check boxes are deactivated. What am I doing wrong?
