Checkboxes in Excel are very useful, they are boxes that we can insert into a cell. Then we can check or uncheck them with a simple click.
They have two values:
- A checked box has the value TRUE
- An unchecked box has the value FALSE
Lets make an example:
- Enter some data
- Insert checkboxes
- To insert checkboxes, select the cells where you want them, go to the “Insert” tab – and click on “Checkbox”
- Use a formula to find out if the box is checked or unchecked.

- The column “Assignment complete” has a formula behind it.
- Use the below formula to give a result wheater the box is checked or not
- =IF(H12;”YES”;”NO”)
- If the box is checked, the formula return YES, otherwise NO
