checkbox dilemma- need larger checkboxes

[Guest]

Hello all,

I just spent the last 2 hours trying to search and look for a solution to my
problem. The problem is I have checkboxes in my document. They are too
small. When you click them, they provide a checkmark in them. But when we
print them.. You can barely see the checkmark and well as stated before the
form is too small.

I am wondernig if vba can help me.. or if there is a simpler solution. Can
anyone please give me some hints, suggestions or possible solutions?

Thanks a lot

Got it to work, by simulation!
Create a Control Form "Label"
Edit its properties, ie. Font and such. Give it a border... etc.
Add the following code to the sheet that the "simulated checkboxes" are on:
(note that each "check box" needs its own code, so label it properly.

Public blnCheck1 As Boolean

Private Sub Chk1_Click()
Call swapCheck1
End Sub
Private Sub swapCheck1()
blnCheck1 = Not blnCheck1
Chk1.Caption = IIf(blnCheck1, "X", "")
End Sub

----hope that helps anyone who had a similar problem to mine!
