If you're tabbing over to the box and pressing <space> then no, you cannot (that I'm aware of).  Only other way would be to click using a mouse on the box.  Unless there's something with the code that Corey can do, but that's more h/w than s/w related.

Using the spacebar to toggle checkboxes is really a Windows standard.  The TD doesn't have to provide any code to make that work, it just works.  Adding a custom key press to make it work would mean a LOT of changes throughout the program...
