Resize checkbox - Excel 365

How can I resize the Forms checkbox - it's too small!

I'm using Office 365

Thanks

    It is not possible to change the size of a Forms check box, but you can increase the zoom percentage at which you view the worksheet.

      Since we are not able to resize the check box. How can we insert a check box with the ability to add text to it and be able to check off the box.

        You can edit the caption of the check box: right-click a Forms check box and select Edit Text from the context menu.

         

        ActiveX check boxes (Windows only) cannot be resized either, but their caption can be formatted.

      Hello Hans,

      Thanks for your reply. I am aware that I can use the zoom percentage but that isn't really an approach I can use this time.
