    Call Tracking Sheet - Electronic

    Hello all,

    Hopefully I can get some help with this. I am trying to turn this call tracking sheet into an electronic one. Is is possible to have check boxes in the empty cells that will allow someone to just click them as they go along and it would create a total at the bottom to avoid countless hours of counting these sheets. Or even turn "Trans CM" into a button that you can click and it would keep track of how many times that specific button was clicked. Any and all help would be much appreciated.

    Thank you,
    Kyle

    The simplest way is to format those cells with the "Marlett" font, then just tap the "a" key as you pass cells you want to "check".

    You can use a formula at the bottom to count the "a" values:


    r = a big "X" mark
    a = checkmark
    b = checkmark

    This requires a VBA solution. If JBeaucaire solution is satisfactory, then use it as it is simpler and uses no VBA code.

    However, if you want "click and count" functionality, then perhaps this attached file will be of interest. First, though, a few explanations about the workbook.

    The data table was shifted down to make room for a couple of rows at the top in order to place totals there for viewing w/o need for scrolling.

    Dynamic named ranges were created for the individual columns and the named ranges referenced in the COUNT formula.

    The Worksheet_BeforeRightClick event is used to tick down each row in the column whenever you right-click on the header cell. It also uses the Marlett check JBeaucaire mentioned.

    Here is the code used:
    Option Explicit
    
    Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeRightClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
        Dim lrow As Long
        
        If Not Intersect(Target, Range("B4:E4")) Is Nothing Then
        
            'supress right-click context menu when in the target cells
            Cancel = True
            
            'find the last row in each column
            lrow = Cells(Rows.Count, Target.Column).End(xlUp).Row + 1
            
            'format the cell to Marlett font and place value into cell
            Cells(lrow, Target.Column).Font.Name = "Marlett"
            Cells(lrow, Target.Column) = "a"
        End If
    
    End Sub

    JBeaucaire & Palmetto,

    Thank you both so much. This was exactly what I needed, you just saved me so many hours of counting check marks. I really appreciate it.
