    Check all

    Hello all,

    I have a spreadsheet that if I dont find anything wrong with a fire extinguisher I click yes. But there is 150 extinguishers with 4 colums, and that is a lot of clicking. Is there a way I can add a button for each colum that I can just click that button to put yes in all rows?

    Thank you for any help.

    Here is the form.

    Perhaps if you only flag exceptions the form will be easier.
    I attached an edited version for you.

    Is that something you can work with?

    Checkboxes are objects and although you have them arranged to display over a cell in a column, in reality they are not part of a cell. I mention this because you can't use VBA to loop down the rows in a column and set the checkbox just for a specific column - at least as far as I know.

    You would have to either process them all in one go or individually.
    This code will turn them all on, then you can deselect the exceptions.

    This seems to work. Add new checkboxes at the top of desired columns and make sure they are left-aligned with those below and assign this macro to them.
