Hi, I have a table with control check boxes that I copy from one sheet to another when a user needs to insert a new table. The control boxes have code in them that activates a particular textbox when they are clicked and I have made it so only one check box can be selected at a time. Is there a way to transfer the code for the check boxes when I copy and paste them from sheet to sheet? Thanks!
 

Excel Facts

Last used cell?
Press Ctrl+End to move to what Excel thinks is the last used cell.
If you switch to Forms Checkboxes, the assigned code will automatically transfer when copied.
With Controls Checkboxes you will have to build some rather involved code. I wouldn't bother when the Forms Checkboxes already do what you want.

ok...can I have a macro within the forms check box similar to the command checkboxes such as

Private Sub CheckBox1_Click()

End Sub

or do you have to use the assign macro function?

Thanks a bunch John...you've helped a great deal

You are correct.
Just use the Assign Macro option. That macro code will stay with the object when you copy it.

Hey John,

Any ideas on how to copy and paste objects from one sheet to another without activating the sheets?

this is what I have so far

Worksheets("sheet1").Shapes.Range(Array("CheckBox1", "CheckBox2", "TextBox1", "TextBox2" _
)).Select

the above only works when sheet1 is the active sheet.
