can you change the font of a check box display (forms)?

[billofsoo]

Using 'forms', can the font size and characteristics (e.g., bold) be modified?

hi
yes. done on the property sheet. click in the font box then click the small
box that appears. the format dialog will appear. change what you want.

Not for Forms toolbar, only ActiveX

Not AFAIK.

Checkbox from the Control Toolbox has much more flexibility in this.

hi
yes for the forms check box.
using xl w/o3.
as i speak, i have a form up with check box and the property sheet. under
font i chick the small square and i have on my screen (as i type) the font
format box. i can change font, font style, font size. and i just change the
font, made it bold and change the size to 12. that is what the OP asked.

sorry. advice stands.

Your advice is not valid when adding a checkbox from the Forms Toolbar to a
worksheet.

It is valid when adding a checkbox to a Userform in VBE

I guess now it is up to OP to tell us which.
