Default Delete an OLE Check Box in COde when a deleting a row

Functionality: To Remove an OLE check box in the row when the user deletes a
row.
This is my current attempt. I get an error message "Can't enter break mode
at this time".
The CheckBox is not linked, it is for visual and print only. There are
remmed statements from previous attempts. Any ideas on this one?

'** Snipped ******************
Dim rowcount As Long
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
On Error GoTo Err_Worksheet_Change

Dim llCanDeleteTheBox As Boolean
Dim lcCheckBoxToDelete As String
'Application.EnableEvents = False 'should be part of Change macro

If IsEmpty(rowcount) Then
'* First time through ... *'
Else

If ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count = rowcount - 1 Then
'* A row was deleted *'

lcCheckBoxToDelete = "CheckBox" + Trim(Str(ActiveSheet.Range("A"
+ Trim(Str(Target.Row))).Value))

For Each Obj In ThisWorkbook.ActiveSheet.OLEObjects
'* Find the Relative Checkbox *'
Stop
If Obj.Name = lcCheckBoxToDelete Then
Stop
'Obj.Delete
llCanDeleteTheBox = True
'lcCheckBoxToDelete = Obj.Name
'ThisWorkbook.ActiveSheet.OLEObjects(Obj.Name).Del ete
Exit For
End If
Next
End If
End If

If llCanDeleteTheBox Then
Stop
'* Delete the Check Box *'
ThisWorkbook.ActiveSheet.OLEObjects(lcCheckBoxToDe lete).Delete
End If

rowcount = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count
'** End of SNIPPED *****************
