How to lock a checkbox?

[bhenderson]

Hello,

I am trying to lock a checkbox that is assigned to a macro so that it cannot be changed once the macro has initiated. If a user tries to uncheck the box the macro tries to re-run. I feel like protecting the drawing objects in the sheet would be the easiest way to solve this but if someone has a better idea feel free. I cannot directly define the checkbox name in my code because the checkboxes themselves are changing and being created due to previous macros in the form. I would need a variable and I don't know how to do that.

Right now I am using:

ActiveSheet.Protect DrawingObjects:=True

Although the code does protect the sheet the checkbox can still be modified... I am guessing that I need to lock something else but I am not sure what. I cannot lock the whole worksheet because some fields need to be filled in by the user.

Any ideas?
Thank you,
Ben

Post an example workbook with example data if you can.

The sample below has the checkbox and code I am referring to. I am hoping to either make the checkbox inactive after being clicked or to create an "undo" button to put it back to its original state. I have tried both and have had problems with each. I figured it would be easier just to lock the checkbox.

Thank you for your help.
