To answer your specific question, you could use Controls("X" & i).

You may also find John Walkenbach's object-oriented solution useful. See

Hi All
I have a set of controls on a userform, named x1, x2, x3 ........... xn
etc

Is there a way of setting these controls in a loop eg

for i = 1 to n
set control x of i to something
next i

I am not sure how to point to a named control by constructing a string
for
the name? Help!
