It is not too difficult to create a macro to group selected shapes and de-select the check box in one operation e.g.
Sub GroupAndLock() With Selection.ShapeRange On Error Resume Next .Group.Select .RelativeHorizontalPosition = _ wdRelativeHorizontalPositionColumn .RelativeVerticalPosition = _ wdRelativeVerticalPositionPage End With End Sub
