There is a new Excel feature on the insert tab of the ribbon that allows users to put a Check Box on spreadsheets without programming. When will that be included in my updates?

thank you

    That is a rudimentary mess of a feature which is boxes dragged on top of a spreadsheet and then formatted to the cells. It is not a way to manage a database of thousands of entries, the BETA version finally fixes it after Google Sheets introduced it a generation ago, yet it is still not rolled out.

    You're welcome. No, I've yet to receive the check box. The "downside" to Insider enrollment is its scattershot release of new features to its members. Features aren't released simultaneously to all Insiders; they're distributed only gradually, and there's no predicting when a member will receive them. I haven't been issued the GROUPBY and PIVOTBY, functions either.

    To begin with, join the Insider program. You might have it right away or wait a short while. I got it about a week after it was announced in the Insider channel.

    Join the Microsoft 365 Insider program - Microsoft Support

    I'm in the Insider progam and I'm still waiting.
