Why am I missing the "Checkbox" feature in Microsoft Excel

Question

I'm trying to use the checkbox feature in the Insert tab on my company Excel account (Version 2308, build 16731.20716).

We are using Microsoft 365 on what I'm assuming to be the latest update but I cannot seem to find the Checkbox feature.

How can this be ?

Answer 1

Same here. Any updates?

Answer 2

I had the same thing happen to me. I have 3 machines all running the same version (2410), 2 of the machines show the Checkbox icon on the Insert ribbon, however my main machine doesn't. A few weeks earlier it was there because this was the machine I created the document that used these on. I wonder if there is a setting in the registry that may be keeping it from showing up?

Answer 3

So typical. Just take away a very easy way to do things. I now have a spreadsheet that displays True/False on one computer and embedded check boxes on the computer next to it. Why? Because Microsoft decided to take this out.

Answer 4

Inserting Checkbox under form control is the way we can add. However this is useless feature as neither sort nor filter is picking this checkbox and leave it orphan.

Answer 5

I have no section Controls/Checkbox. Someone can tell me why?
