[RESOLVED] Looping through controls

I'm sure this has been asked many a time, and I'm sure for what is probably a repeat post, but after much attempt I'm still failing at simply looping through all the controls on my form and outputting the name and caption of that object if it is an optionButton, Frame, CheckBox, or Label.

I currently have the code just for frame looking like this...

vb Code:

Dim ctl As Control
For Each ctl In Me.Controls
    If TypeOf ctl Is OptionButton Then
        MsgBox (ctl.Caption)
    End If
Next ctl

This loop appears to iterate but never see a msgbox... The above code works for a frame, but not for option buttons.... Any help would be appreciated! thanks!

Try this

Code:

---

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim wks As Worksheet
 Dim OLEObj As OLEObject
 Set wks = Worksheets("Sheet1")

 For Each OLEObj In wks.OLEObjects
    If TypeOf OLEObj.Object Is MSForms.OptionButton Then
            MsgBox OLEObj.Name
    End If
 Next
End Sub

When you are using controls in a Form then you need to try this...

vb Code:

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
    Dim ctl As Control
    For Each ctl In Me.Controls
        If TypeName(ctl) = "OptionButton" Then
            MsgBox ctl.Name
        ElseIf TypeName(ctl) = "CommandButton" Then
            MsgBox ctl.Name
        ElseIf TypeName(ctl) = "Frame" Then
            MsgBox ctl.Name
        End If
    Next
End Sub

Great Thanks! Used the latter, works perfectly... Thanks to both of you.
