在Excel中使用ActiveX表单控件的缺点？

Question

I will make an interactive checklist for work in Excel 2016. I see more possibilities of using active x controls instead of form controls. In a form control, you can not even resize the checkbox (that you tick in).

Have read a lot about that it's a bad idea to use Active X in Excel and that you should use form control instead but what are the real disadvantages?

I can't find any disadvantages on the link. Maybe that you must allow active x when you open the file, but I do not see that as a disadvantage.

Answer 1

Active X pro's : Lots of options, Lots of events (VBA), Lots of formatting options, Lists return the selected value rather than the index number.

Active x cons : Cumbersome to use one macro for multiple controls, Sometimes cause of trouble with file corruptions.

Form Control pro's : Simple to use, Can be used on chart sheets, Assigning control to a macro is simple, Little known problems.

Form Control con's : Lists return the index number rather than the selected value.

Generally speaking, I recommend using the controls from the forms toolbar. If you have specific needs regarding formatting which cannot be achieved using the forms controls (or if you want to program events in VBA), then you'll have to switch to the ActiveX controls (control toolbox controls).
