check boxes in a protected sheet

Hello

I have designed a form where I have used lots of check boxes from the forms toolbar. Ecah check box is linked to a cell that gives me a true or false answer and in return is linked to a formula to total up all the true ones.

The problem i have is when i password protect the sheet, you can't select the checkbox. If i de-link the check box its fine. I have tried to unprotect the cell where the checkbox sits but that didn't work. I didn't use a macro for this as i am not good at VB. I really don't eant to have to go and re-do the whole thing as its a llot of check boxes i have linked manually.

Anyy help please

That will probablt work. Is there an easy way to link the boxes rather than havin gto go into each individual one. I have over a 100 to do
