I know this is a little off the subject, but how do I go about addressing a CheckBox? Here's what I tried codewise (which turned out to be erroneous):

If Worksheets("XFMR Relay Test Sheet").CheckBoxes(1).Checked = False Then


The checkbox is on this particular worksheet and is named Checkbox1. I'm using my knowledge of programming Foxpro and kinda guessing my way through. I originally tried addressing it as Checkbox1.Checked, but that didn't work either. Could someone throw me a bone, please?






>I don't know of any way to do that. I doubt if you can unless you store a previous compare to value somewhere on the sheet. What I was picturing was logic that would do whatever using the value that is in the cell you're interested in reguardless of if it changed or not when a button was pressed.

>Compare your data (say column B) and look at the rows you want. Compare them to say column Z or anything else that is way over to the right and not seen. If they don't match do the logic you want then copy column B to column Z. The first time you run this, column Z is blank. So, even the first time it is ran it would work. If it possible that valid data can be blank, you could initialize those cells in column Z to contain "ZZZZZ" or something that you know would not be entered.

>>>The only way I could think to do this is to select one of your 12 choices, then click a button that runs some VBA code. Or have just the VBA code in a button and when it is clicked, it starts with a message box that has the 12 selections. I don't think the VBA code to do something like that would be hard to write at all. If you start it and have problems, let me know.
