Default Delete ComboBoxes using a macro?

I need to delete 33 Comboxes all on the same sheet by using a macro. I am
using very simple code as below, which I got from recording a macro and
deleting one ComboBox which worked fine.

ActiveSheet.Shapes("ComboBox1").Select
Selection.Delete
ActiveSheet.Shapes("ComboBox2").Select
Selection.Delete
ActiveSheet.Shapes("ComboBox3").Select
Selection.Delete

And so on until I have deleted all 33. My problem is that I get an error
message stating:

Run-Time error '-2147024809 (80070057)
The item with the specified name wasn't found.

I have checked the properties of the boxes and they appear to be "named"
correctly. However, if I use On Error Resume Next all but two are deleted.

Any help and advice would be much appreciated as it's driving me "NUTS".

Kind Regards

Mick
