Quick way to disable all other checkboxes on form (except the one that's ticked)?

Hello,

I have this clunky code:
VBA Code:
Private Sub CheckBox1_Change()

Select Case CheckBox1.Value
    Case True
        CheckBox2.Enabled = False
        CheckBox3.Enabled = False
        CheckBox4.Enabled = False
        CheckBox5.Enabled = False
        CheckBox6.Enabled = False
        CheckBox7.Enabled = False
        CheckBox8.Enabled = False
        CheckBox9.Enabled = False
        CheckBox10.Enabled = False
        CheckBox11.Enabled = False
        CheckBox12.Enabled = False
        cbSubmit.Enabled = True
    Case Else
        CheckBox2.Enabled = True
        CheckBox3.Enabled = True
        CheckBox4.Enabled = True
        CheckBox5.Enabled = True
        CheckBox6.Enabled = True
        CheckBox7.Enabled = True
        CheckBox8.Enabled = True
        CheckBox9.Enabled = True
        CheckBox10.Enabled = True
        CheckBox11.Enabled = True
        CheckBox12.Enabled = True
        cbSubmit.Enabled = False

End Select

End Sub

Is there a quicker way? There are twelve checkboxes on the form so I'm going to have one of these for each one - plus, there may come a time when more checkboxes are introduced so I'm going to have to rewrite all of this.

Thanks in advance as always.
 

Excel Facts

Did you know Excel offers Filter by Selection?
Add the AutoFilter icon to the Quick Access Toolbar. Select a cell containing Apple, click AutoFilter, and you will get all rows with Apple
As an idea, try following & see if does what you want

VBA Code:
Sub EnableCheckBox(ByVal objCheckBox As Object)
    Dim i           As Long
   
    For i = 1 To 12
        With Me.Controls("CheckBox" & i)
            If .Name <> objCheckBox.Name Then .Enabled = Not objCheckBox.Value
        End With
    Next i
    Me.cbSubmit.Enabled = objCheckBox.Value
End Sub

call by passing the required checkbox object

VBA Code:
Private Sub CheckBox1_Click()
    EnableCheckBox CheckBox1
End Sub

Private Sub CheckBox2_Click()
    EnableCheckBox CheckBox2
End Sub

Solution
If you only want one selectable, using Optionbuttons is easier since that's how they work natively.
