Issues with Checkbox

[Roberta_Herod]

I am inserting a checkbox using developer into Excel and the checkbox comes with text.  I have deleted the text in all the recommended manners but it will not go away.  Is there a problem with my Excel?

Is it a Form Control check box or an ActiveX check box?

It is a form box

Have you tried this?

• Right-click the check box
• Select Edit Text from the context menu
• The insertion point will be at the start of the text.
• Press and hold Delete until the text is gone.
• Click outside the check box.

Try the following:

• Right-click on the check box to select it.
• Press Esc to dismiss the context menu.
• Press Alt+F11 to activate the Visual Basic Editor.
• Press Ctrl+G to activate the Immediate window.
• Type Selection.Caption = "" and then press Enter.
• Press Alt+F11 to switch back to Excel.

Well that is a little bit more complex. 🙂 I will try that. Thanks
