This sounds like something that would happen to me... seemingly harmless
normal code - not working!

I would try opening a new workbook, add a checkbox, double click it and add
the code. Set a breakpoint on the event and step through the click. If that
works, then I would go through your original workbook and double check for a
naming error. When I first tried your code, I added CheckBox1 to my workbook
and clicked on it but pasted your code referencing Checkbox20 and it didn't
work until I caught the naming conflict.
