Hello All,<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:eek:ffice:eek:ffice" /><o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
I have been using this fantastic forum for many months now without having to post, a big thanks you to you all!:biggrin:<o:p></o:p>
This is my first so I apologise if I haven't posted quite right. Please point me in the right direction!<o:p></o:p>

Excel 2007 VBA
<o:p></o:p>
Please can anyone help with the below?:confused:<?xml:namespace prefix = v ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml" /><v:shapetype id=_x0000_t75 stroked="f" filled="f" path="m@4@5l@4@11@9@11@9@5xe" o:preferrelative="t" o:spt="75" coordsize="21600,21600"> <v:stroke joinstyle="miter"></v:stroke><v:formulas><v:f eqn="if lineDrawn pixelLineWidth 0"></v:f><v:f eqn="sum @0 1 0"></v:f><v:f eqn="sum 0 0 @1"></v:f><v:f eqn="prod @2 1 2"></v:f><v:f eqn="prod @3 21600 pixelWidth"></v:f><v:f eqn="prod @3 21600 pixelHeight"></v:f><v:f eqn="sum @0 0 1"></v:f><v:f eqn="prod @6 1 2"></v:f><v:f eqn="prod @7 21600 pixelWidth"></v:f><v:f eqn="sum @8 21600 0"></v:f><v:f eqn="prod @7 21600 pixelHeight"></v:f><v:f eqn="sum @10 21600 0"></v:f></v:formulas><v:path o:connecttype="rect" gradientshapeok="t" o:extrusionok="f"></v:path><o:lock aspectratio="t" v:ext="edit"></o:lock></v:shapetype><v:shape id=Picture_x0020_1 style="VISIBILITY: visible; WIDTH: 12pt; HEIGHT: 15.75pt; mso-wrap-style: square" alt="0" type="#_x0000_t75" o:spid="_x0000_i1025"><v:imagedata o:title="0" src="file:///C:\DOCUME~1\JASON~1.BEB\LOCALS~1\Temp\msohtmlclip1\01\clip_image001.gif"></v:imagedata></v:shape><o:p></o:p>

The below piece of code Sub RPCSUpdateCategories() is for updating 40 CheckBox Captions on a userfrm from the sheet RPCSSystemsUse Range("B16:B55").<o:p></o:p>
I have only included a few to save space on the board.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
"Sub RPCSUpdateCategories()<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
'RPCS Summary Categories
IPPMainFRM.CheckBox1.Caption = Worksheets("RPCSSystemsUSE").Range("B16").Value
IPPMainFRM.CheckBox2.Caption = Worksheets("RPCSSystemsUSE").Range("B17").Value
IPPMainFRM.CheckBox3.Caption = Worksheets("RPCSSystemsUSE").Range("B18").Value
IPPMainFRM.CheckBox4.Caption = Worksheets("RPCSSystemsUSE").Range("B19").Value
IPPMainFRM.Repaint<o:p></o:p>

End Sub"<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
What I am trying to achieve is the above but without 40 lines of repeated code.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
The below code won't work because I can't figure out how to make the CheckBox include a variable as part of its name? <o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
RPCSCheckBoxesName would be CheckBox1 to 40 if its not a variable.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
"Sub Testcheckboxes()<o:p></o:p>

Dim RPCSCategoryRange As Long
Dim RPCSCheckBoxesNo As Long
Dim
RPCSCheckBoxesName As String<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
RPCSCategoryRange = 16
For RPCSCheckBoxesNo = 1 To 40<o:p></o:p>


RPCSCategoryRange = RPCSCategoryRange + 1<o:p></o:p>

RPCSCheckBoxesName = "CheckBox" & RPCSCheckBoxesNo<o:p></o:p>

If Range("B" & RPCSCategoryRange).Value = "" Then<o:p></o:p>

Else<o:p></o:p>
IPPMainFRM.RPCSCheckBoxesName.Caption = Worksheets("RPCSSystemsUSE").Range("B" & RPCSCategoryRange).Value
IPPMainFRM.Repaint
End If<o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>
Next RPCSCheckBoxesNo<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
End Sub"<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
Any help would be greatly appreciated,<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
Thanks,<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>

Excel Facts

Whats the difference between CONCAT and CONCATENATE?
The newer CONCAT function can reference a range of cells. =CONCATENATE(A1,A2,A3,A4,A5) becomes =CONCAT(A1:A5)
Close!
Replace:
IPPMainFRM.RPCSCheckBoxesName.Caption
with:
IPPMainFRM.Controls(RPCSCheckBoxesName).Caption
