The check box has to be linked to a cell, which cell will return TRUE or
FALSE, depending on whether the box is checked (TRUE) or not (FALSE). You
can use these values to build your IF statement.

To link a check box to a cell, right click on its border and navigate to the
option that allows you to link it to a cell.

Assuming your check box link to cell A1. If the check box is checked then A1
becomes TRUE

Formula: =IF(A1=TRUE,"such and such happens","else...")
