Checkbox macro question...

[theeyecollector]

I'm currently creating a model to help with budgeting for a dance that's being organised at my school. I have checkboxes to tick as each thing is paid for, (e.g. marquee) and I've set up an appropriate macro to deduct the amount each item costs, from the total amount of money remaining.

I was just wondering if it's possible to assign different macros to check boxes for when you tick and untick them - it would be really useful to have the facility to untick a box, (*as well* as keeping the macro described above for when the box is ticked) and then have the cost of that item added back to the total money remaining.

Thanks for any help.
(Oh, and if you can, please don't make it too technical - I'm proficient at Excel, but not amazing!)

I think I have an idea of what might work for you. Something in a IF Then statement, but I would need to see the code you have so far. Can you post it?

Why not have your macro differentiate whether the checkbox is set or not?

If it is a forms checkbox, you just test like so

If ActiveSheet.CheckBoxes(Application.Caller).Value = 1 Then
'checkbox ticked
Else
'not ticked
End If
