Default Can anyone help with _click() events?

Peter,

It would help if you show us the code, and explain what type of checkboxes
they are (worksheet forms, control toolbox or userforms).

I'm trying to display a form that cycles through a list of items and
displays checkboxes that are ticked or unticked depending on the item
properties.

I have written code that uses the _click() event to determine if the
status has changed (ie someone has ticked what was previously unticked /
vice versa) and then retrieve via an inputbox some more details which
are then inserted into the sheet.

HOWEVER, what seems to happen is that Excel is recognising the cycling
of items as being _click events and pops up the box for input whenever
the checkbox moves from unticked to ticked because the item it refers to
has that property even if you haven't clicked on the actual checkbox.

Am I missing something fundamental?

Any help gratefully received.

Peter
