Copying a Check Box to other cells
LPONG0413 if the checkboxes are in the same column, you could just add the checkbox into the first cell of that column and then drag the fill handle down (not the checkbox itself, just the cell).
You will see the names of the checkboxes to appear the same, but the backend name of each object will have a different name.
There is a downside to this approach: if the first checkbox is linked to specific cell, then all other cells will be linked to the same cell and you would need to link each checkbox manually.
Let me know if this helps.

I tried that too but everytime I tried to select the cell (not the check box) it's like clicking the check box to "check" or "uncheck" it.
When I right-click the cell, the check box is "selected" and that is what I can copy and paste but only to one cell at a time.
You may navigate to the cell under check box with arrows, when press and hold Shift, scroll down till end of your range (other words select it), release Shift and press Ctrl+D.
The only you'll need 4999 times to link appeared check boxes to cells.
