Hi Bob

Here is the code that is being used to filter the pivots from the check
boxes. But I have a second set of check boxes that allow the users to filter
on a second pivot field. I don't know how to tell the vba how to distinguish
between the two sets of check boxes!

Thanks a lot

Sharon

Public Sub CommandButton1_Click() ' Non-OLAP Country Filter

Dim cbx As CheckBox
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim ctrl As Control
Dim obj As Object
Dim pt As PivotTable
Dim pi As PivotItem
Dim pf As PivotField

Dim cf As CubeField
Dim aState$()


Application.ScreenUpdating = True

' Loop through all of the CheckBox Objects on Selector

a& = 0 ' initialise counter

For Each obj In ActiveSheet.OLEObjects

' If the Checkbox was selected then ...

If TypeOf obj.Object Is MSForms.CheckBox And obj.Object.Value = True Then

'MsgBox obj.Object.Name
' Increment a counter
a& = a& + 1


' Expand the aState$ dynamic array to add another element

ReDim Preserve aState$(1 To a&)


' Initialize the new element of the array with the caption of the
selected CheckBox

Hi All - after having brilliant help last week re check boxes I have one
more question. I need to distinguish between two different sets of check
boxes (MSForms objects) on a worksheet. But for some reason vb code won't
recognise a check box name property e.g. obj.Object.Name in the same way
it
does for the value, e.g. obj.Object.value? If anyone has any ideas I
would
be really grateful, as always!! Thank you all so much for your help thus
far. You are making me look good!
