I have 2 checkboxes on a worksheet. The second one has no purpose unless the first one is checked. I would like for the second checkbox to be greyed out until I click on the first one. Is this possible on a worksheet (I don't use a user form)

Here is how to do it with ActiveX checkboxes. Needs VBA. (I don't know how to do this with Forms checkboxes but that would also need VBA.)
Edit: If you have them both checked, then uncheck the first one, I also uncheck the second one.
Thank you...This worked as advertised however I have some Mac users of my worksheet so I've been forced to use Forms Control checkboxes.
I was able to come up with the following code for these Form Control checkboxes:
It required setting some similar code on the ThisWorkbook object in the Sub Workbook_Open() section to ensure that that behavior was in place before the checkbox was clicked on the first time.![]()

Hello JimDandy,
The Forms Check Box controls don't have a greyed state when disabled. Instead, you could make the control visible or invisible. Copy the code below into a new VBA Module and then assign the macro to "Check Box 1". Be sure to change the names to match those on the worksheet.
