How do I make a checkbox bigger?

[Guest]

I am using a checkbox in Excel. I can control the font size, but cannot seem
to find a way to actually make the checkbox itself bigger

DMD,

If you're using the checkbox from the Forms Controls Toolbar, select the
checkbox and then right-click on your mouse. "Handles" should appear on the
exterior of the checkbox. Select the handles and resize the checkbox.

If you're using the checkbox from the Control Toolbar, make sure that you
have activated the design mode.

Thanks for your quick response.

What you suggested will change the size of the box that the actual checkbox
sits within, but not the size of the checkbox. Is there a parameter I need to
change in the properties for the checkbox that will allow the checkbox to
increase in size as well as the box around it?
