Default Update multiple locations when changing a value on one worksheet

I have a workbook that contains 40 plus worksheets.

I have a control sheet with this workbook.

I want the user to be able to enter the information needed only on the
Control sheet.

Once that information is updated, i.e. Checkboxes checked, #s inputted.

I want those values to automatically update the different worksheets.

Besides doing '='location'. Is there a way that excel can handle this or do
I have to hardcode it in Vb.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Default Update multiple locations when changing a value on one worksheet

Monique,
How about just making the cells in the 40 other worksheets dependent on the
master sheet's cells, like any other dependent formula would do?

Very easy for formula cells, and even for checkboxes as shown below:

Checkboxes have a linkedcell property (has to be the same sheet). If you
change the linkedcell's value it toggles the checkbox and vice versa. On the
dependent sheets, just have the same cells point to the Linked Cell for each
checkbox on the Master Sheet... and the dependent sheets' check boxes should
update accordingly.

Hope this helps, if not, holler...
