Change multiple checkbox properties with For, Next

Problem: I need to make a loop to enable/disable 20 checkboxes on a Userform when Checkbox1.value changes.

The code changes remaining checkbox values to TRUE when Checkbox1 is "checked." Can't seem to use the same technique for "disable" - Ctrl.disable didn't work. Don't want to have 20 lines of code to disable the checkboxes. Is there a way to condense the last code lines in a loop?

Private Sub checkbox1_change()
If CheckBox1.Value = True Then
Dim ctrl As Control
For Each ctrl In UserForm1.Controls
ctrl.Value = True
Next ctrl
End If
CheckBox2.Enabled = Not CheckBox1.Value
CheckBox3.Enabled = Not CheckBox1.Value
CheckBox4.Enabled = Not CheckBox1.Value
.
.
.
.
etc.

End Sub

Best way to learn Power Query?
Read M is for (Data) Monkey book by Ken Puls and Miguel Escobar. It is the complete guide to Power Query.
This should give you an idea. Hope it helps!

Code:
Private Sub CheckBox1_Change()
    Dim ctl As Control
    
    If CheckBox1 Then
        For Each ctl In Me.Controls
            If ctl.Name <> "CheckBox1" Then
                Controls(ctl.Name).Enabled = True
                ctl = True
            End If
        Next
    Else
        For Each ctl In Me.Controls
            If ctl.Name <> "CheckBox1" Then
                Controls(ctl.Name).Enabled = False
            End If
        Next
    End If

End Sub

Thanks RH -
That was the hint I needed. "Controls(ctrl.Name).Enabled" did the trick.
Thanks!
