Check Box Short Cut?

[Guest]

Is there a way to insert a check box in text? I was trying to find a windows
shortcut for a text check box. Like ALT + 0761 does one exist?

Thanks

Eric.

A working checkbox would have to be entered through the Control Toolbox or the
Forms toolbar.

Just a visible checkmark or checkmark-in-a-box can be entered with Alt + 0252 or
0254 in Wingdings font.

A simple checkmark can be entered using Marlett font and entering the letter "a"

There are some Unicode assignments for checkmarks, but unfortunately
they are not very universally available. For some different characters
available see http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/rexx/htm/symbols.htm#ticks

Hi,

1. Open the Workbook and click a cell.
2. In the Font list, select Windgdings.
3. In the Font size enter number or select a values from the list.
4. Press the "o" on the keyboard,a check box appears in the cell.

Note: You can assign different font for each letter in cell.
