I am sharing with you very interesting trick to insert check mark symbols / to change check mark symbols with the double click in excel.
We can use Wingding font check boxes and change them with the double click with the help of macro
You can add as many of them by just defining the range in your macro. Values can be changed by just a double click.
You will further need to do data validation for that range so that user does not enter any other value by mistake.
You will need to
copy this code to worksheet module of your workbook
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
