Private Sub ExcelAddCheckBox()

        Dim CheckBox1 As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel. _
            Controls.CheckBox = Me.Controls.AddCheckBox( _
            0, 0, 78, 18, "CheckBox1")
        CheckBox1.Text = "Underline" 

    End Sub
private void ExcelAddCheckBox()
{
    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Controls.CheckBox checkBox1 =
        this.Controls.AddCheckBox(0, 0, 78, 18, "checkBox1");
    checkBox1.Text = "Underline";
