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

    Looks like they are attempting to make it work again...

    Version 2410: October 28

    Version 2410 (Build 18129.20116) Feature updates...Excel

    • We fixed an issue where some users couldn't see checkboxes getting rendered after inserting them.
    • We fixed an issue where making Application.ScreenUpdating = false in macros caused screen flickering.
    • Fixed an issue where Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) calculation caused the Excel app to stop responding.
    • We resolved an issue where the RTD ThrottleInterval setting wasn’t working as expected.
    • We resolved a graphics-related issue that caused the app to close unexpectedly at times.

    New Method VBA/FONT Method
    FALSE ☐ 10/26/24
    TRUE ☑ 10/28/24

    I am still not seeing it on 1 of my 3 machines with this version. It used to work on this machine since this was the machine I originally created a document using it
