Default Using variable names in a loop

Thanks for your help with solving the userform controls naming when using a
loop. I also have 5 public variables (as date) called time1, time2, time3,
time4 and time5. They are used in the following code. They used to work fine
when i did it 5 separate times but in order to minimise code i tried,

For Box = 5 to 1 step -1

Cells(riderCell.Row, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Offset(0, 1) =
WorksheetFunction.Text(("Time" & box), "[hh]:mm:ss")

I'm guessing I need some form of code to let it know that "time" & 5 is a
variable name not the text time5.

I am now starting to understand why I thought it was safer to have 5 times
as much code. I'm sure it's simple but can anybody help me.

Thanks
