Sure. Use this code as the field's custom validation script:

event.target.lineWidth = (event.value=="") ? 0 : 1;

Thank you so much for your response!! So it's kind of working... when I put that script in there then test it out, it still shows the line on two sides even when it's not filled... it also still prints a blank box if it isn't filled. Any tips?

Try disabling the fields highlighting option.

That did work! Thank you again for your help! There probably isn't a way to keep the fields highlighted, huh?

You can manually set the field's fill color...

Sorry to be a pain... I'm clearly a rookie at this and I SOO appreciate your help!

It's still printing the boxes even when they aren't filled....  and now it's still showing the faint two lines when it's not filled even when the fields aren't highlighted...
