Check Boxes Hiding

Hello all,

I've been trying so hard the past few days to work out how to hide check boxes.. firstly trying myself and then looking up online.. and I really can't find an answer.

I'll explain the scenario and hopefully one of you geniuses will be able to help!

I have several columns of tick boxes which need to be displayed for the full set of data. According to a criteria, I require some of the columns to be hidden, as they aren't needed. The columns can be hidden, and that's fine.. but once the column is hidden the check boxes will bunch up together next to where the hidden columns now are. This makes my spreadsheet look unprofessional and a bit messy and I really don't want that.

Here is the example: http://fleetv.co.uk/Untitled.jpg

Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas?

Thanks in advance
