I'm trying to put together a simple (?) form using a Active X and legacy form controls - I have a situation where if a user selects Checkbox 1 (active X) then Checkbox 3 and Checkbox 4 are also selected, likewise if a user select Checkbox 3 then Checkbox 4 and 1 are selected and so on... in reverse, if any are deselected then the remaining boxes will be deselected.

At the moment I can complete the first part of the objective using the below, but not the deselection element.



Private Sub CheckBox1_Click()
CheckBox2.Value = True
End Sub

Can anyone advise

Is there a reason for using ActiveX controls and formfields instead of the newer content controls?

Hi Thanks for getting back to me.
No particular reason for using Active X other than a lack of experience. I needed a set of tick box's for a user to select their software requirments, then came an extra requirement of if the user opts for software option A then they MUST have options B and D. But they deselect B then options A and D must be deselected. Any feedback on how to meet this requirments ?

Did you look at the link I posted? You might also check out threads such as the following on various uses of content controls:
