If you put two Forms checkboxes on a sheet and name them 'cbB' and 'cbC' you can assign the macro below to both of them. Which column is affected will depend on which checkbox triggers the Sub. Code is for a regular module: if you want it in the sheet module then I would replace ActiveSheet with Me Sub CheckBoxClick Dim vis As Boolean, ac As String, col As String ac = Application.Caller With ActiveSheet vis = (.Shapes(ac).ControlFormat.Value = 1) Select Case ac Case 'cbB': col = 'B' Case 'cbC': col = 'C' End Select If col ' Then.Columns(col).Hidden = vis End With End Sub.
