I have 8 check boxes in Excel on rows 1:4 and 6:9. I have other macros that
hide and unhide these rows together or separately. When all rows are hidden
and then unhidden, the checkboxes all stack up at the bottom on row 10.

Any property value I am overlooking with respect to the movements?

Thanks,
GoldenFoot

If you're using checkboxes from the Control Toolbox Toolbar, you can select them
all and then rightclick on the selection and:

Format Control|Properties tab|Check Move and size with cells

And make sure that each checkbox is completely in that cell/row.

If you're using checkboxes from the Forms toolbar, you won't be able to do
this. (I'd replace them with the control toolbox toolbar version.)

Dave, this is an old one, but it is assisting me with fixing my current
problem. The "move and size with cells" is gray, not an option to choose.
I'm sure that is why I am having a similar problem as the person below. Any
insight as to why I am not being allowed the option to check that box? The
other two are available to pick.

There are two checkboxes that look very much alike.

The checkbox from the Forms toolbar does not allow this setting.

The checkbox from the control toolbox toolbar does allow it.

Are you sure you used the checkbox that you really wanted to use???

YOU ARE WONDERFUL! That is exactly it. I just searched help on check box
and it explained the one from the forms menu, so that's what I used. I will
change all of them out immediately!

Thank you!

I need some more assistance. I did a test check box from the control
toolbox. I can't get it to do the check mark, it stays in some sort of
"edit" mode (or something). Any thoughts?

On the Control Toolbox Toolbar at upper left you will see an Icon looks like a
T-square and a triangle.

Click on that to get out of "design mode".

I'm trying to do the same thing in Excel 2002 but there is no option "Move
and size with cells" (unless I'm looking in the wrong place!).

I've created the check boxes from selecting them from the Control Toolbox
Toolbar.

Can this be done in Excel 2002?

Go into design mode.
Rightclick on the checkbox and select Format Control
You'll see it on the properties tab.

A bit more clarity surrounding my problem.

I'm using Excel 2002 and I've got a number of check boxes which are
currently hidden in rows 16:19.

How can you automatically unhide them when another check box (which isn't
hidden) is selected?

I've tried the following code but it objects when it gets to
"ActiveSheet.Shapes("CheckBox12").Select":

Private Sub CheckBox1_Click()

Rows("15:20").Select
Range("A20").Activate
Selection.EntireRow.Hidden = False
ActiveSheet.Shapes("CheckBox12").Select
Selection.Visible = True
ActiveSheet.Shapes("CheckBox13").Select
Selection.Visible = True
ActiveSheet.Shapes("CheckBox14").Select
Selection.Visible = True
ActiveSheet.Shapes("CheckBox15").Select
Selection.Visible = True

End Sub
