Default Use a string as a form control name?

How can I change this routine to make it more generic? I want to enable a
form textbox (Sxxxx) depending on the value of a form checkbox (Qxxxx).
Basically I need to know how to use a string as a control name.

I tried creating a generic object using

set foo = OLEobject('Q'&'2222').object

but it failed with 'Sub or Function not Defined'

-----------------------------------------------
Sub EnableDisable()
Dim iUniqueNumberAs String

'capture the unique number....NOW WHAT DO I DO WITH IT??
iUniqueNumber= TEXT(Right(Q1062.Name, 4))

If Q1062.Value = True Then
S1062.Enabled = False

Else
S1062.Enabled = True

End If
End Sub
