Welcome to another episode of Excel Hacks! In today's video, we're going to show you a handy VBA macro that will save you time and effort when working with check boxes in Excel. Have you ever found yourself needing to flip the state of multiple check boxes at once? Well, with this macro, you can do just that with a simple click.
First, we'll demonstrate the traditional method of toggling check boxes by using the space bar. As you can see, this can be quite tedious and not always produce the desired result. That's where our macro comes in. By multi-selecting the check boxes and running the macro, we can easily flip the state of all the check boxes at once.
But wait, there's more! We also have two additional macros that allow you to make all the check boxes either true or false. This can come in handy when you need to quickly set all the check boxes to a specific state. And the best part? You can add these macros to your quick access toolbar for easy access anytime.
Now, let's take a look at the code behind this macro. We've included some error checking to ensure that only the check box cells are affected. Then, we simply reverse the state of each cell, making it true if it was previously false and vice versa. With these macros in your personal macro workbook, you'll have a powerful tool at your fingertips for working with check boxes in Excel.
