      Can you suggest any shortcut way to link all cells with respective check boxes at a time. Because it will be very lengthy process if there is more rows over there .

    Brilliant! I’ve been wanting checkboxes for years, but never had the chance to investigate it and for it to work out as I don’t use excel that much.
    Thanks again Kevin.

    This is great! Is it also possible to copy down the links (true/false)?

    • @guizot2010
      @guizot2010 11 місяців тому

      Apparently, it isn't possible to copy down the links, which means that if you are linking for conditional formatting with a sheet that has a large number of rows then this is not really feasible.
      Also, if you want to remove the check boxes--guess what? You can't remove them by deleting the column. They will stay on your spread sheet. You have to delete each one, one-by-one. So if you copied a lot of them, and then realize that you don't want to use check boxes after all, (because, let's say, you find out that you can't copy down the links), then you have to go down the WHOLE list and manually right click to take each one out. Definitely this is a failure so far, because it's only feasible with a short, demonstration list of a few rows, such as here in this video--not a real world example.

    • @joukenienhuis6888
      @joukenienhuis6888 Рік тому

      I think you need to use vba code to make that possible. Make a new button and name it resetbutton. Press F11 and you go to the programmers coding environment. In the screen on the right you see 2 pull down menus. You have to find resetbutton_click or something like that. Select it and a new function is written in the empty screen. Try to make a loop to set the value of the checkboxes to false. To do that you also need to know the name of the checkboxes.

    • @ekaterinavonbismarck3102

      In a column where you have TRUE and FALSE words, replace all with FALSE. All check boxes should clear of checks. You can type FALSE in cell C3 and copy this cell down.
