I am creating a rather small excel sheet. Only 4 columns, but it will become quite lengthy. I need a check box in it to use as the case goes to Appeal status. So, what I would like to do is for that check box, which I will have in column 1A. But once I enter a name in column 1B, I would like a new check box entered in row 2a. Is hat possible? Or do I have to manually enter that check box every time?



I am sure this is a super simple question.

What is =ROMAN(40) in Excel?
The Roman numeral for 40 is XL. Bill "MrExcel" Jelen's 40th book was called MrExcel XL.
Hi,

If you right click sheet name, click on view code and paste this
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
    If Not Intersect(Target, Range("B:B")) Is Nothing Then
     
    ActiveSheet.CheckBoxes.Add(Cells(Target.Row + 1, "A").Left, Cells(Target.Row + 1, "A").Top, Cells(Target.Row + 1, "A").Width, Cells(Target.Row + 1, "A").Height).Select
        With Selection
        .Caption = ""
        .Value = xlOff
        .LinkedCell = "A" & Target.Row + 1
        .Display3DShading = False
        End With
    End If
End Sub

You will get a checkbox in A row+1 if you enter a value in column B. The checkbox is linked to its cell (so when you click a checkbox in A3, it will write true or false in A3). Easier is to get column A a wite font for user not to see it.
