Default Adding checkmarks to an excel spreadsheet

I am trying to set up a chart and instead of using "yes" or "no" for answers,
I'd like to be able to use checkmarks. Is that possible?

Certainly. You can either use the checkboxs from the forms toolbar, and link
each one to a cell for tabulation, or you can *fake it* by using the
Wingdings2 font. The capital letters O through T procude checkmark-ish type
symbols. For tabulation, you can then do some COUNTIFs.
