I have to pass the name of a controlelement as argument to a sub.But how do
i retrive the name of the control element. within the elements Click-event.
What I like is something like this:

Private Sub CheckBox0_Click()
Call NewSub("ActiveControl")
End Sub

In this case, the name of the active control is Checkbox(0), and the problem
could be solved using:

Private Sub CheckBox0_Click()
Call NewSub("Checkbox(0)")
End Sub

but I would like to be able to use the same code fro a lot of
controlelements, without having to hardcode all the names.
