How can I use a variable to perform operations in multiple textboxes or comboboxes on a form?

I have a single form with 60 textboxes, and around 120 comboboxes, I also have a worksheet with 5 different sets of information for each combobox or textbox. (<-- Not sure if that made sense). Basically I have a lot of information and I want to run through my text or combo boxes using variables such as

x = 1....... to imput data into textbox(X) and combobox(X) .... which is read from the worksheet in line (X)

Any ideas? suggestions?
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide..

Show numbers in thousands?
Use a custom number format of #,##0,K. Each comma after the final 0 will divide the displayed number by another thousand
I usually keep my controls named "TextBox1" or "ComboBox1" just for this purpose.

Code:
For x = 1 to 5
   UserForm1.Controls("TextBox" & x).Value = "your value"
next x
