    Hide a checkbox when hiding the row it is in

    I found this thread which is exactly what I want to know as well - however I am somewhat VBA familiar. I need to know how I can hide checkboxes in a row when I hide the row. Currently, when the row is hidden, the checkboxes are still visible and scruncth up. Any suggestions?


    Thanks in advance

    What does the check box do? You can make a cell act as a check box with some VBA
    Hope that helps.

    It is a flag for information that will be presented on a chart, there are up to 15 possible data lines that can be plotted and I've created it so as the user can select which, if not all, data lines they would want charted - by using the checkmark boxes.

    If you can substitute the cell value for the checkbox value it would be easier

    My problem is this...I need a true/false value for 15 data lines. The users of this are going to be ...well...let's just say they are not the brightest pears that fell off the apple tree...they are management. Everything needs to be basically point and click with the mouse.

    I have four possible uses of the same spreadsheet which the user can pick from. The rows containing the instructions for the other three uses are surpressed and hidden - which one of them has checkmark boxes (remember, point and click). I have since found that I can use

    will work...but when I go to make it visible again, it doesn't always appear on the row I originally placed it. Any other suggestions? The key is that it has to be point and click and not keyboard oriented for the user.
