While in Design mode, when you select a control, its name should be displayed
in the Name box (on the left of the excel formula bar).
So:
- if the Formula bar is not visible, you can display it by going in menu
View Formula Bar
- to switch modes Design/Run, click the Design Mode icon from the Visual
Basic toolba. You can display this toolbar through the menu View Tollbars
Visual Basic.

VBA:
For OLEObjects controls, they should be directly accessible:
Sheet1.Combobox1.ListIndex
For other objects, you should be able to access them through the Shapes
collection:
Activesheet.Shapes("Chek Box 3")...

I hope this helps,

I have a control on my worksheet (not a User Form) that I want to disable or
remove when a certain field is populated. The problem is, I can not find the
name of the control. I can get to the 'Format Control' window, but that's no
help. Where can I find the name of that control?

thanks
