Default Looping through checkboxes

I have the line of code

Sheets(1).OLEObjects("CheckBox1").Object.Value = True

that works great, but how do I loop through all the checkboxes in my
sheet with something like this

For Each cb In Sheets(1).OLEObjects.CheckBoxes
Sheets(1).OLEObjects(cb.Name).Object.Value = True

I get a runtime error 430 Object doesn't support this property or
method.

How do I loop through the checkboxes?


I don't know of any way to do this directly. If you keep the default
control names (or consistently adopt a naming convention) you could
use the like operator:

Sub test()
Dim control As OLEObject

For Each control In Sheets(1).OLEObjects
If control.Name Like "CheckBox*" Then MsgBox control.Name
Next

End Sub
