How do I set up a formula with a check box?
I want to set up a formula on a worksheet using a check box. I want the
formula to return a Value of "Pass" if the checkbox in the cell is checked, otherwise, I want the formula to return a value of "Fail" if it is not checked. |
An actual checkmark is a pain to use - involves changing font.
If an X will do, here is a formula: =IF(A1="X","Pass", "Fail") Excel is not case-sensitive so X or x will trigger Pass best wishes -- Bernard V Liengme www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme remove caps from email "Russell-stanely" wrote in message ...

Click on Tools-Customize and then check Forms to open the Forms Toolbar.
Click on the check box icon on the Forms Toolbar and then click on the spreadsheet where you want the check box to appear. Right click on the check box and then click Format Control. On the Control tab, enter a cell address where it says Cell Link. This cell address you entered will then show TRUE if the check box is checked or FALSE if the check box is not checked.
