Check boxes are not restricted to columns (or even rows) They appear in a
different layer of the sheet. What were you thinking of doing with all of
these checkboxes, there may be a workaround?

Just jumping in here, because I've wanted to do something similar. Think of
a punchlist or a to-do list, with a boolean "yes, it's done", or "no it
isn't."

On a construction project of any size, various contractors and
subcontractors work off of a sheet printed and taped to a wall for each
area, which includes the work to be done. They check off work as it gets
complete. Surprisingly, many large jobs generate these sheets via Word,
which leads to a tracking nightmare. Tracking such info and generating
punchlists in Access is probably best, but for a small job, excel could be a
nice tool for doing this.
