Default Syntax to return the value of a control by reference

This is driving me crazy!!
I have a number of controls on a sheet. (Check boxes, option buttons and
combo boxes). I know that "cmbTitle.value" or "optBlue.value" sets/returns
what I want for an individual control but how do you refer to the controls in
a loop without using their individual names?

ie I want a macro to loop through the controls and return or set the
controls' values to/from an array. I have been using:
thisworkbook.sheets(s).OLEobject(x)...... where x=the control's name.

This works for pulling up their names etc. but "OLEobject" does not have a
"value" property. While about it, how do you return the type of a control ie
whether it is a combo of check box?
Please help...... I don't have much hair left!
