Hi all. Could you please let me know how I get the "Cell Controls-Checkbox" tab on my ribbon. I have searched the "Customize Ribbon" and can't find it there. Am I doing something wrong or is it not available on the Microsoft 365 family subscription?
Regards
Peter
 

Excel Facts

Copy formula down without changing references
If you have =SUM(F2:F49) in F50; type Alt+' in F51 to copy =SUM(F2:F49) to F51, leaving the formula in edit mode. Change SUM to COUNT.
Right click on a tab. Choose Customize Ribbon. Choose "Commands not in the ribbon" from "Choose commands from" dropdown. Choose a tab to add to from right side list. Click New Group at the bottom to add a group to your selected tab. Find the checkbox command you need (there are 2) and select it. Click Add to add it to your new group.

I suspect you can add a new tab and put your command there, but I have never tried that.
If the above doesn't help, I imagine you can google it and watch a video for this.

Yes, that's not a problem. I just created a "test" tab and put 2 commands there.

Hi Micron and Burrgogi.
Thanks very much for your replies but I am aware of the normal checkboxes available in the developer tab.
Please see below for the checkboxes that I was referencing.
I have found-out since posting my query that apparently this is still in test mode on the Beta channel and will be released down the track.
