I'm trying to use Checkboxes after getting a new computer, and it doesn't create the checkbox. The button seems to do nothing. I opened an old spreadsheet that DID have checkboxes already placed, and they were unformatted as well. Any idea what computer/Windows/Excel setting needs to be enabled?

If I use a built-in table in Excel (ListObject), is there a way to format a table field to have this new type of checkbox in every newly added table row (ListRow)?

Hey! Thanks for leaving a comment. You can add checkboxes to your tables and it will automatically add new checkboxes when rows are added.

Yep! Try using the following where ‘Selection’ refers to the currently selected cell. ‘Selection.CellControl.SetCheckbox’ to add a checkbox and ‘Selection.ClearContents RemoveControls:=True’ to remove the checkbox.

Thank you for your comment! Usually changing data types in PowerQuery is pretty solid. It could be a number of things though. The first thing I'd check is to see if there are any leading spaces in the text or letters. If those exist then you'll need to remove those first before converting.

Wondering if you can answer a question for me regarding formatting cells. Is there a way to set a default format for currency? I would like my default to be US$ with ZERO decimal places. Excel typically brings up the formatting box with no currency marker and 2 decimal points. Randomly, the US$ will appear selected in that formatting box, but I have not diagnosed when/how that happens. Many Thanks!

Sorry, I don’t believe there’s a way to set a specific format when creating a new file. It’ll always start with the ‘General’ format. For me, when I need to copy a specific format (i.e. not one of the default formats) from one workbook to another, I’ll copy the Custom format code. Hope this helps!
