I am tring to get two series of radio buttons (or check boxes) with seperate cell references on the same sheet. Problem is, the second series defaults to the original series cell reference. For example

<TABLE style="WIDTH: 260pt; BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" border=0 cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=347><COLGROUP><COL style="WIDTH: 116pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 5668" width=155><COL style="WIDTH: 48pt" span=3 width=64><TBODY><TR style="HEIGHT: 15pt" height=20><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; WIDTH: 116pt; HEIGHT: 15pt; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3" height=20 width=155></TD><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; WIDTH: 48pt; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3" class=xl63 width=64>Colour</TD><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; WIDTH: 48pt; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3" class=xl63 width=64></TD><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; WIDTH: 48pt; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3" class=xl63 width=64>Size</TD></TR><TR style="HEIGHT: 15pt" height=20><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; HEIGHT: 15pt; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3" height=20></TD><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3">Black</TD><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3"></TD><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3">Small</TD></TR><TR style="HEIGHT: 15pt" height=20><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; HEIGHT: 15pt; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3" height=20></TD><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3">White</TD><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3"></TD><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3">Medium</TD></TR><TR style="HEIGHT: 15pt" height=20><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; HEIGHT: 15pt; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3" height=20></TD><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3">Red</TD><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3"></TD><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3">Large</TD></TR><TR style="HEIGHT: 15pt" height=20><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; HEIGHT: 15pt; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3" height=20></TD><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3">Green</TD><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3"></TD><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3">X Large</TD></TR><TR style="HEIGHT: 15pt" height=20><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; HEIGHT: 15pt; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3" height=20></TD><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3"></TD><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3"></TD><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3"></TD></TR><TR style="HEIGHT: 15pt" height=20><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; HEIGHT: 15pt; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3" class=xl63 height=20>Cell reference required</TD><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3" class=xl63>A1</TD><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3" class=xl63></TD><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #e0dfe3; BORDER-LEFT: #e0dfe3; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; BORDER-TOP: #e0dfe3; BORDER-RIGHT: #e0dfe3" class=xl63>B1</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>

Can anyone show me how to get independent cell references for these controls?
 

Excel Facts

Quick Sum
Select a range of cells. The total appears in bottom right of Excel screen. Right-click total to add Max, Min, Count, Average.
Sorry,in Excel 2007, Developer tab > Insert > Option Button (or Check Box).

This is really difficult to put into words.....I want to be able to select one of two products each with multiple options. If I have a unique reference cell for each product, when they are selected I can use the Index function to manage the various options associated with it.

At the moment, all of the option buttons refere back to the same cell reference (properties > control > cell link) and I need to have two series with independent cell links.

I didn't get you clearly, but I assumed you want this.

Right Click on the Check box then Goto Format Control, there With Control Tab, Give CEll link which cell you want.

helpful?
