Hi,

I have five columns each with different values. I want to add a checkbox so that when they click on that cell, it assigns that value from the criteria column in the cell. Then I want to be able to add those totals going across. See below for example

                                 Criteria1    Criteria2     Criteria3    Criteria4     Criteria5      Total 
                                     w=20        w=15         w=5           w=15        w=10

Project A x x x 35
Project B x x x 40
Project C x 15

    Hi @Cicely Mason

    Doable with checkboxes but that's crazy to put in place (avail. here for download). Instead:

    In G3 (and copy down) : =SUM(IF(B3:F3<>"",B$2:F$2,)) and validate with Ctrl+Shift+Enter if you don't run Excel 365 + Hide row 2
