I put a buttons from the Forms toolbar on the worksheet with the checkboxes from
the Forms toolbar.

I assigned this macro to that button.

Option Explicit
Sub testme()

Dim CBX As CheckBox
For Each CBX In ActiveSheet.CheckBoxes
CBX.Value = xlOn
Next CBX

End Sub


(Why bother checking to see what the value is if you're going to make it xlOn
anyway?)

box. is this possible in VBA or no becuase i tried the following code:

If your checkboxes are from the Controls toolbar, use

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
If Sheet1.CheckBox1.Value Then
Debug.Print "checked"
Else
Debug.Print "unchecked"
End If
End Sub

If the checkboxes are from the Forms toolbar, use

If Worksheets("Sheet1").CheckBoxes("Check Box 3").Value = 1 Then
Debug.Print "checked"
Else
Debug.Print "unchecked"
End If
