If you're looking for how to insert a tick symbol (otherwise known as a check mark or checkmark) into Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel, you've come to the right place.

Tick marks can make your spreadsheet easier to use. Microsoft Excel is a powerful financial software package, and that makes it a suitable choice for audit spreadsheets and similar documents.

Before you add any calculations or checkboxes, you need to tell Excel that certain columns (in my case, columns D, F, and G) will output a time by changing the data type for these cells.
