Checkbox set in vba not set on reopen of form

Hello I am setting these checkboxes programmatically in Excel  and on first pass they are set. However when I reopen the document after saving they are not set. I was wondering is there a way  to set them and keep them set the way I programmed them to be.

 

Code adapted from:

https://myengineeringworld.net/2013/10/read-and-write-pdf-forms-from-excel-vba.html

 

'All checkboxes to checked
objJSO.GetField(strFieldNames(22)).Value = 1
objJSO.GetField(strFieldNames(23)).Value = 1
objJSO.GetField(strFieldNames(24)).Value = 1
objJSO.GetField(strFieldNames(25)).Value = 1
objJSO.GetField(strFieldNames(26)).Value = 1
objJSO.GetField(strFieldNames(27)).Value = 1
objJSO.GetField(strFieldNames(28)).Value = 1
objJSO.GetField(strFieldNames(52)).Value = 1

It would be helpful if you specify which part of the macro is this.

 

According to the the link where you grabbed  the code from there are two codes; One is for reading the PDF the other one is for writing to the PDF.

 

So when you say the first pass, does this mean that the ReadPDF portion of the code works but not the WritePDF code?

It was the write section. To resolve the problem I recreated the form and that eliminated the issue. I was using the form straight from the VA.
