Good afternoon Mike -
Getting A check box in a cell should be done using the Check BOX item on the FORMS Toolbar.
Go to the View Menu - Select the Toolbars menu - Select the Forms Toolbar
The check box is the third item down in the left column. Click on it and then click and drag in a cell in your sheet.
While it is still selected - go to the Format Menu and select Format Control - type in a Cell address that you want to
use to get the value of the checkbox - True is checked - false if unchecked.
Hope this helps -
Thanks,
Jon Barchneger

| **I would like to insert a checkbox into a cell, then when checked, create a
| **formula that reads
| **something like "If this boxed is checked, then enter a specified letter in
| **cell "A3".
| **1st things 1st.
| **The initial problem I am having is that after inserting the check box &
| **clicking on it, it does not enter a check mark.
| **Unless it cannot be done, I think I can figure the formula if someone can
| **help me with getting the box to check.
| **Thanks,
