checkBox frame width problem

Hi,

Im making a digital form in excel (with the idea for it to be printed) which has about 50 check boxes. Ive edited each box so the special effect is "Flat" and not "Sunken" (which is default).

This flattened check box just looks like a box on the page (as intended... a sunken effect on a print out doesnt look too good), but is there anyway to change the width of the lines?

The form im working on is quite light and to have these hard 5pt (im guessing) boxes all over the place ruins the effect and of course Corporate Image are on my case :( Any help would be apreciated.

Thanks,

juree.
 
Can you use the checkbox on the Forms toolbar instead of the one on the Control Toolbox? It has a flat thin line by default.
 
absolute genius!

i didnt know there was one there... apologies if that seemed a bit simple, but i come from an access background so i "had" to do it the hard way.

Thanks again,

juree
