Karyn,
I'm sure there are other ways to do it, but the way we handle it is:
1. Set up a new character format using the desired font that contains the kind of checkbox you want to use.
2. Set up a new paragraph format using autonumbering with the character format you set up in step 1 and with the keystroke required for the desired bullet in the autonumber format field.
Be careful the font you choose for the bullet, because the size required for the bullet to be as large as you want versus the size you use for the font of the paragraph itself can have some odd effects on the line spacing and vertical centering of the bullet by the paragraph text.
Good luck!

I want to put a check box in front of a list of items to create a
checklist. How can I do this in FrameMaker? My first thought was to
substitute a box for bullets, but is that possible? And if so, how is it
done? Or is there another way to accomplish this?
