00:00I recently posted a video on how you can make an animated habit tracker using
00:03Google Sheet like this but a few of my subscribers were requesting if I can do
00:07the same thing in Microsoft Excel so I just have to try and this is how you can
00:13do it the first thing you have to do is to add a checkbox here go to developer
00:17if you don't have a develop tab right click on a ribbon customize the ribbon
00:21and in here make sure that your developer is checked and click OK once
00:24that's done you go to control insert form control you're gonna put a check
00:28box here right about here just position it nicely right click text edit and
00:32press delete a few times to get rid of the text then right click again go to
00:36format control and then in here you're gonna link this to this cell here B2 and
00:41click OK after that once that's done you're gonna repeat the same thing for
00:44the rest of the tasks after that we're gonna place a check on every checkboxes
00:49and change the font color of the cell to white next we'll enter the formulas the
00:56first formula here is this and the second formula is this and the third formula is
01:02this and the loader index formula is this just note that your loader index
01:06boundary might be different than mine next we'll build a repository of image
01:10start a brand new sheet in here you're gonna type 1 2 3 4 5 which is actually a
01:15image loader here and change the size of this height that much and click on B1
01:19here and you go insert illustration picture this device and I'm gonna load
01:23this five pictures here to indicate growth starting with the very first one and
01:25then resize it I'll use the same steps to add the remaining four pictures next
01:30select any image ctrl C to copy in a clipboard go to your main sheet here
01:34adjust the height of row 23 and ctrl V on B23 here to paste the picture so
01:40we're gonna assign a name for this you're gonna go formula and you're gonna
01:43define names and define name let's give it a name called grow or something and
01:47over here you're gonna start typing a new formula called xlookup if you are
01:53using an older version of Excel you can use index as shown on the screen here and
01:57then the first argument would be the load index and then the second argument
02:02will be the image of the index number itself and the third argument would be
02:07the picture itself any close parentheses here and click on ok now we're gonna
02:12click on this picture here and you say equal grow like this and hit enter now
02:18every time make changes to your checkbox your plant will change sizes
02:22accordingly
