Many thanks. That worked. I don't know what I was doing wrong. I basically
copied the code from another spreadsheet I made a ways back. And it still
works there. VBA in Excel is still pretty mysterious to me and not nearly as
easy as Access for me.

I have some code that I only want to be run if a check box is checked. So I
inserted an ActiveX check box which I have named cbRecord.

I then put the following IF around the code which is initiated by clicking a
spinner form control:

If cbRecord.Value Then
...
...
...
End If

However, when the code is run I get the following error: Run time error
'424': Object required. When I go to debug, the code doesn't even know that
my check box exists.
