how do use write code so that a checkbox is selected when the program begins?

Assuming that it is a Forms checkbox

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Worksheets("Sheet1").CheckBoxes("Check Box 2").Value = 1
End Sub

'This is workbook event code.
'To input this code, right click on the Excel icon on the worksheet
'(or next to the File menu if you maximise your workbooks),
'select View Code from the menu, and paste the code

Hi Apil27,

Assuming that the checkbox is on a userform, as might be implied by some of
your earlier posts, try:

'=============
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Me.CheckBox1.SetFocus
End Sub
'<<=============
