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

damn i got lucky then, upgraded to beta on pc a week ago and had instant access to the insert checkmnark in to cell. temperarily using a diffent computer and have only just enrolled into beta on that device. was wondering why it wasnt there anymore.
I keep checking it; Microsoft hasn't updated my office 365 with it, yet. I hope to see it soon!
You need to check the insert ribbon
Here is the Image for reference.
Using the Image Provided, You must be signed up for the Microsoft 365 Insider. Next, you must select the "Beta Channel" instead of "Current Channel (Preview)". (It should be noted that you are able to go back and forth between these 2 channels.) However, If you use the "Beta Channel" and create the checkboxes, then go back to the "Current Channel" your checkboxes will no longer be there and will be replaced with a TRUE or FALSE value. Also, if you send the Spreadsheet to someone else that does not have the Beta channel enabled, the checkboxes will have the same result.
To my knowledge, the checkboxes will remain in the Beta Channel until it is determined they don't have any bugs or cause any issues.
ETA to Current Channel = Unknown
Hope this helps!
