Default Check Box

Does anyone know of a way to convert a cell to a check box? We would like to
convert the cell rather than using the active X controls on top of it.
Thanks.

You could double-click the cell and "convert" it to a=20
checkbox:

Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target _
As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
With ActiveCell
.Value =3D "=FC"
.Font.Name =3D "Wingdings"
.Borders(xlEdgeLeft).LineStyle =3D xlContinuous
.Borders(xlEdgeTop).LineStyle =3D xlContinuous
.Borders(xlEdgeBottom).LineStyle =3D xlContinuous
.Borders(xlEdgeRight).LineStyle =3D xlContinuous
.ColumnWidth =3D 2.57
End With
End Sub

---
To use, right-click on the sheet tab, go to View Code,=20
and paste in the code above. Press ALT+Q to exit.
