Help with Excel Macro?

Update:

I have a worksheet with a horizontal check box list. I want write a macro that enables the cell at the end of the list to turn green and display "Yes" in that cell when are check boxes are selected and turn red and display "No" when one or more check boxes are not selected. Thanks

    Edit: you really don't have to use a macro to do as you wish. As you have the check boxes 'floating' over the grid, each over a specific cell, just link each check box to the cell below it. Then, you can use conditional formatting on cell B12, using a formula:

    =COUNTIF(B4:B11,TRUE)=8

    Format the cell Green

    =COUNTIF(B4:B11,TRUE)<8

    Format the cell Red

    Note: you can use the same formulas for the cell to return 'Yes' or 'No'.

    =IF(COUNTIF(B4:B11,TRUE)=8,"Yes","No")

    Repeat for each group of check boxes. Hide the column containing the linked references.
