Connecting two checkboxes on different sheets

P

ph8

Hi folks,

I have two sets of three checkboxes on two different worksheets (in th
same workbook) that I need displaying the same information.

I tried linking both corresponding checkboxes to the same cell, but
wasn't able to link them to a cell in another worksheet. I trie
linking them to local cells and using formulas in the cell to keep th
checkboxes in sync. But that only worked one way. This is my mos
recent attempt, which also resulted in not working.

'Sheet2 code
Private Sub ocb_click()
Cells(11, "a") = "='sheet1'!$A$11"
Sheet1.clickKeyCB()
End Sub

'Sheet1 code
Function clickKeyCB()
Dim x As Boolean
x = Cells(11, "A"): x = (x + 3) Mod 2: Cells(11, "A") = x
End Function

The code seemed to work, but for some reason, even though bot
checkboxes are both still linked to their corresponding A11 cell, th
checkbox's value does not change between true or false.

Any ideas? Maybe I am going about this the wrong way, I'm all ears t
any suggestions

To keep it simple:

On sheet1:
Private Sub CheckBox1_Click()
Sheet2.CheckBox1 = CheckBox1
End Sub

and on Sheet2:
Private Sub CheckBox1_Click()
Sheet1.CheckBox1 = CheckBox1
End Sub

you'll need three sets of these - one for each CheckBox.
