    Message box and hyperlink popup when checkbox is ticked

    Hi All,

    I'm looking into some way to bring up a message box with a clickable hyperlink to a file or folder when a specific checkbox is ticked.

    Is this possible?

    something like this:

    Thanks sintek, had a look but want to avoid going down this route as i've already got form checkboxes setup in my sheet.

    found an alternate solution which works by opening a folder location when yes is clicked on the message box, code below.

    Trouble now is i'm struggling to active this macro automatically when the checkbox is clicked.

    Hi Sintek, not sure this triggers when the checkbox is checked?

    edit: if I check the checkbox and manually run the macro it works perfectly
