Default add multiple checkboxes to userform at runtime

I have a spreadsheet with a list of values in column Y that I want to
show up as checkboxes on a userform. The current code crashes when it
tries to add a caption to the checkbox. I get a runtime error "Could
not find the specified object"
The actual code would call a function to determine how many rows in
column Y which will vary, and I'll add code to size the form and
manipulate the checkboxes to fit.



Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Dim iRow As Integer
Dim iLeft As Integer
Dim ctlCheckBox As Control
Dim sName As String
dim iNumRows as integer

Worksheets("ModelList").Activate
iTop = 10
For iRow = 2 To iNumRows
If Cells(iRow, "Y") < "" Then
Set ctlCheckBox =
frmEditBom.Controls.Add("Forms.CheckBox.1", "cb" & iRow)
sName = "cb" & iRow

'I tried using ctlCheckBox sub for sName-same result

frmEditBom! sName.Caption = Cells(iRow, "Y")
frmEditBom!sName.Left = iLeft
frmEditBom!sName.Top = iTop
iTop = iTop + 10
End If
Next iRow
End Sub
