Learn how to create a checklist in Excel.

To create a checklist in Excel, begin by typing your checklist items in a column. Then, select the cells containing the checklist items, navigate to the "Data" tab, and click on "Data Validation." In the Data Validation dialog box, choose "List" from the Allow dropdown menu and enter "x" or any desired character in the "Source" field. To create a checklist progress, insert a column next to your checklist items and use formulas like COUNTIF to track completed tasks. If you don't have the Developer tab, you can still create a checklist using the Insert tab and inserting checkboxes from the Form Controls section. Excel indeed offers a To-Do list template accessible via the template gallery.

Here are the steps outlining my video.

Check Off Item From List
1) Select cells B4 to B13
2) Home ~ Style ~ Conditional Formatting
3) New Rule...
4) Select "Use a formula to determine which cells to format".
5) =$C4=TRUE
6) Format
7) Font tab
8) Font color as Gray
9) Effect Strikethrough
10) Font style to Italic
11) OK
12) OK
