you can use the below code
 
1. Create New Formula field
2. Use chr(254) for true and chr(168) for false
IF {isTrue} THEN

chr(254)

ELSE

chr(168)

If you use that you'll have to also change the font to wingdings or you get something else.

I have already implemented check boxes with the code you wrote but thatīs right now not my problem. my problem is i want some fields to have permanently yellow as the background color. i can do that through field formatting but the yellow background color will only appear yellow when i enter something into those fields and thatīs my problem. i want those fields to remain yellow regardless of their contain.
