Enlarge a checkbox
Sorry, Michael, this is not possible. As far as I know, the only way to
achieve something like this is to replace the checkbox with a textbox, with a Wingdings font that provides a tick mark, and use code on the textbox's click event to write the value to your Yes/No field. -- Steve Schapel, Microsoft Access MVP Michaelcip wrote: How the hell can you enlarge a checkbox on a form???

Those are Wondows widgets and do not have a size. You can make the area that will be "clickable" larger, but that won't affect what it looks like. Alternatives are to use ToggleButtons or fake a CheckBox with a TextBox and the WingDing font. -- Rick Brandt, Microsoft Access MVP Email (as appropriate) to... RBrandt at Hunter dot com
