to do this?

Link the No checkbox to a cell on the worksheet. The cell will show
"TRUE" when the checkbox is checked, and "FALSE" when it's unchecked.
Then, for the cells you want to grey out, use conditional formatting
to check the value of the linked cell and format accordingly.

hi
afterthought.
in case you aren't sure, use the linked cell property of the option button
to trigger the conditional formating.
the cell(s) you want grayed out, the CF in those cells should be something
like
formula is....=B2=Fasle (or True)
