SUMMARY
In Microsoft Excel, you can use control objects such as check boxes, option buttons, and list boxes on a worksheet or a dialog sheet. However, note the following exceptions.

Worksheets
You cannot use the following on a worksheet:

Edit boxes

Combination list-edit boxes

Combination drop-down edit boxes

Dialog Sheets
Although on a worksheet you can place multiple lines of text on a button control, button controls on dialog sheets will only display a single line of text when the dialog box is displayed.
