Insert symbol in cell
working with excel 2003 want to insert the "check mark" in certain cells.
Could not find it in insert, symbols. Would prefer to just click the mouse in the cell but configuring a keyboard combination would work as well. Guidance sought. |

Insert symbol in cell
working with excel 2003 want to insert the "check mark" in certain
cells. Could not find it in insert, symbols. Would prefer to just click the mouse in the cell but configuring a keyboard combination would work as well. It's a little effort to use a mouse click, but here's one way. 1. Right-click in the tool bars and make the Forms tool-bar appear. 2. Click on the check box in the Forms tool-bar and then on the worksheet. This makes a check box appear on the worksheet. 3. Move and re-size the check-box to suit. 4. Right-click on it and use "Edit Text" to change its label. 5. Right-click on it and use Format control Control Cell link to assign a cell that will track the on/off status of the check box. Use that cell for calculations depending on the status. There are other choices in "Format control" to fine-tune the appearance of the check box, if needed. |
