everything works except when the checkbox is checked or uncheck...it does
not change the cell value. I can manual change the cell to "" or SHOW
...which does work correctly.

Seems that the checkbox being changed does not change the cell value

try
replacing
Sheets("Criteria").Range("A93").Value = ""
with
If Sheets("Criteria").CheckBox1.Value = False then
Sheets("Criteria").Range("A93").Value = ""
Make sure the sheet is not protected.

ok I fixed it.....had to put the code in module and made the line:
If Sheets("Criteria").CheckBox1.Value = True Then

One other problem is that the cell does not blank out if checkbox is
unchecked

Try this
In your useform1 ( assuming this is you welecome form)

put
Private Sub CheckBox1_Click()
If CheckBox1.Value = True Then
Sheets("Criteria").Range("A93").Value = "SHOW"
Else
Sheets("Criteria").Range("A93").Value = ""
End If
End Sub


Then in This Workbook put

Private Sub Workbook_Activate()

If Sheets("Criteria").Range("A93").Value = "SHOW" Then
UserForm1.Show
Else
End If
End Sub

I would like to open a userform (WelcomeWindow) when the

I would also like to place a checkbox on userform that allows a
user
to
check it to indicate they no longer want the userform to appear.

thanks
