This short guide explains how to add checkmark in Excel using Python. You will get all the details to set the IDE, a list of steps, and a sample code for inserting check mark in Excel using Python. Different methods will be demonstrated in the code to add read-only and interactive tick marks in the sheet.

Steps to Add Check Mark in Excel using Python

1. Set the environment to use Aspose.Cells for Python via .NET to add a checkmark
2. Import the necessary classes and modules
3. Create a workbook or load an existing workbook
4. Access the target sheet from the loaded workbook
5. Access a cell from the sheet and put a Unicode tick as a value in it
6. For inserting an interactive check mark, add a checkbox to the checkboxes collection
7. Set checkbox text and default state
8. Save the Excel file

The aforementioned steps describe how to add tick mark in Excel using Python. Import the necessary modules from the library, create a Workbook, access the target cell from the sheet, set a Unicode value for the tick mark in it, and set an appropriate font in the style for displaying the tick properly. The second option is to insert an interactive checkbox by adding a checkbox in the collection of the checkboxes of the given sheet, along with setting the default state and text for the checkbox.

Code to Insert a Check Mark in Excel using Python

This code demonstrates how to put a tick on Excel using Python. It has demonstrated two methods where first, a readonly tick mark is displayed in a cell using the Unicode value \u2713, whereas you can use \u2714 for displaying a heavy check mark. For displaying a cross or un-checked readonly state, use the value \u2717 for ballot x, \u2718 for heavy ballot x, and \u274C for cross mark emoji.
