Sat, 04 Dec 2021 16:22:35 +0000

Quickly learn how to create a check-box in Microsoft Excel. I also cover adding multiple checkboxes to a column. You'll also learn how you can use the result of a checkbox in your formulas. So if the checkbox is checked, you get a different outcome to when it's not checked. You can use the checkbox together with conditional formatting to strikethrough words - i.e. strike tasks off every time the checkbox is checked. Using checkboxes is also great when you design an Excel Dashboard. You can make something happen in your dashboard whether the checkbox is checked or unchecked. This gives you the ability to create interactive reports.
