insert check box to a particular cell through vba macro

Question

I would like to insert the check box in particular cell through macro. For example: On click of a command button i should be able to add the check box to A1 cel

Answer 1

This simple line allows you to add CheckBox to cell A1 and set width and height accordingly:

ActiveSheet.OLEObjects.Add "Forms.CheckBox.1", Left:=Range("A1").Left, Top:=Range("A1").Top, Width:=Range("A1").Width, Height:=Range("A1").Height

You can easily add it to CommandButton this way:

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()

    ActiveSheet.OLEObjects.Add "Forms.CheckBox.1", Left:=Range("A1").Left, Top:=Range("A1").Top, Width:=Range("A1").Width, Height:=Range("A1").Height

End Sub

Edit Your code improved...

You simply need to add loop to insert checkboxes into several cells:

Sub YourCode_Improvment()

    Dim i
    '
    For i = 1 To 10 'cells from 1st to 10th

    ActiveSheet.CheckBoxes.Add(Cells(i, "A").Left, _
                                Cells(i, "A").Top, _
                                72, 17.25).Select
    With Selection
        .Caption = ""
        .Value = xlOff '
        .LinkedCell = "C" & i
        .Display3DShading = False
    End With
    Next
End Sub

Change this code accordingly, if needed.
