control toolbox objects and formulas
hi all,
is it possible to reference an object in a formula? ie if a checkbox object exists on the worksheet, can something like this be done: =IF(CheckBox1=TRUE,"1","0") tia J |

The way it is designed to work is:
Link the checkbox to a cell, then reference the cell in your formula. -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "Gixxer_J_97" wrote in message ... hi all, is it possible to reference an object in a formula? ie if a checkbox object exists on the worksheet, can something like this be done: =IF(CheckBox1=TRUE,"1","0") tia J |

Dear Gixxer:
You can set the control to modify a cell with the LinkedCell property. That way, you don't need to reference the control, instead you reference the cell that your control "controls". You can find the properties button on the control toolbox. A window appears when you select your control (you need to be in design mode) and the properties will appear in it. Hope that helps!
