I'm so very, very sorry, but on trying out all these suggestions -
they all work lovely, thank you - I realized that I shouldn't make
this toggable. Of course, when I tested it, I mis-clicked and saw how
too easy it was to reset something that shouldn't be reset. Glad I
figured this out now rather than later <g, though. This sheet is to
keep track of items that need to get done so we must be absolutely
sure that only accomplished items get the strikethrough. So the
button should turn the strikethrough on only, after all. And a
separate script with value to false can be accessed by the user
manually so that taking the strikethrough off is done on purpose and
never by mistake.

Phew. Good to figure that out.

So I thought it would be easy to figure out how to get the vb code to
apply the strikethrough to columns A and B on the which one is on but,
blunderwoman strikes again, I can't figure it out. I've spent the
last 40 minutes on the archives of this ng and nothing.

The only spreadsheet I have that applies formatting to a row in a
similar manner deals with the borders so I don't know how to change it
to deal with the font and text within a cell.

So the simple code seems to still be good:

With Selection.Font
.Strikethrough = True
End With

Just need to change the above so that strikethrough is applied to
columns A and B of the active row.

Thanks so much! :oD
