    Auto tick

    I am not sure this is possible but here goes my question.
    I have 3 columns column 1 is text, column 2 is a number or text value and column 3 i want to be clear or a wingdings tick mark. my scenario is I want to put a tick mark in all cells in column 3 if there is any content in a cell in column 2 and leave column 3 cell blank if cell in column 2 is empty . I want to be able to do this with one clik of a check box and it ticks all of the cells in column 3

    kindest regards alex

    Use this in the CheckBox_Click event.

    Since you are using a Form Control instead of an activeX control, you'll need to assign the control a macro. First put the code below into a standard module. Then right click the checkbox and click "Assign Macro". Choose the macro you just pasted. Lastly change all the cells from C10 to C37 to Webdings font.
