How can boolean columns be formatted in a worksheet?

Boolean columns in a worksheet are specifically designed to represent true/false values, which can be conveniently displayed as Y (for Yes) or N (for No) values, or as checkboxes. This formatting allows users to visualize and interact with the data in a clear and intuitive manner. The use of checkboxes provides a straightforward way for users to indicate binary choices, while the Y/N representation keeps the data concise and easily readable.

Furthermore, this formatting is particularly useful in workflows and analytics, where decisions are often based on binary conditions. By allowing boolean columns to be represented in these specific ways, users can quickly ascertain status or choices without delving into more complex numeric or text representations that could lead to confusion.

The other available formats like text only, numeric values, or non-editable text do not effectively capture the binary nature of boolean data. They would either misrepresent the data's intent or limit the interactivity that users may require when working with boolean fields in a worksheet. The choice of Y/N values or checkboxes ensures clarity and enhances user experience when dealing with boolean information.
