Linking cells


Posted by Jen on August 15, 2001 11:13 AM

I have a document w/ checkboxes. I am wanting to be able to click one check box and it to automatically click multiple corresponding check boxes below. I can get it to work for one box but not all. Please help.

right-click on the checkbox you'll use to control the others, select 'view code', then enter this code :

Private Sub CheckBox1_Click()
If CheckBox1.Value = True Then
CheckBox2.Value = True
CheckBox3.Value = True
CheckBox4.Value = True
ElseIf CheckBox1.Value = False Then
CheckBox2.Value = False
CheckBox3.Value = False
CheckBox4.Value = False
End If
End Sub

change this code to fit your checkbox's names etc...

Talking about linking cells - is it possible to create a link from
one cell to another spreadsheet when you click on that cell? In other
words, I have a cell with just a little information, and if the
user wants more info on that topic, I want them to be able to click
on that cell and be lead to another spreadsheet within the same
workbook in Excel. Can this be done?

ok, i get it. just right-click on the cell you want to add the link to and choose 'hyperlink'. on the left side of the dilog box you can choose from linking to a place in another file or a place in the current workbook. pick which one you want then select the location and cell reference you want to go to in the boxes to the right of that.
