Question description:
This user has given permission to use the problem statement for this
blog.
I would like to be able to check a box and have it highlight a certain cell. So lets say in my attached sheet if I check the box in F4 I want A4 to highlight yellow, A4 contains a drop down list so not sure if that matters, and if I check E4 I want it to highlight A4 blue. Is this possible?
