How do you make an object, whose name is equal to a String?

Question

Ok, heres my situation, I have a vector full of strings which i've enumerated.. and i need to create a bunch of JCheckBox's whose names are equal to the strings in the Enumeration..
I tried going:
          Enumeration Type = TypeList.elements();
          while(Type.hasMoreElements()){
               String T = (String)Type.nextElement();
               list.add(new JCheckBox(""+T));
which makes them appear in the GUI, but i dont know how i would then be able to add an actionListener onto that checkbox, or indeed how i would go about accessing any of them when they dont have actual names.
ANy Help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Yeh.. i dont get this.. I've got them to appear in the JPanel with:
          Enumeration Type = TypeList.elements();
     boxMap = new HashMap();
          while (Type.hasMoreElements()) {
               String T = (String) Type.nextElement();
               JCheckBox b = new JCheckBox(T);
               boxMap.put(T,b);
               list.add(b);
               b.addActionListener(ch);
Thats all well and good, but when i try and see which one has been clicked using a similar fashion:
               if(ae.getSource() instanceof JCheckBox) {          //checkbox
               Enumeration sourceCheck = TypeList.elements();
               System.out.println((JCheckBox)ae.getSource().getAccessibleContext());
          Map SourceMap = new HashMap();
               JCheckBox compare = (JCheckBox) ae.getSource();
          while (sourceCheck.hasMoreElements()) {
               String T = (String) sourceCheck.nextElement();
               System.out.println(T);
               JCheckBox b = new JCheckBox(T);
               SourceMap.put(T,b);
               if(compare == b)
                    System.out.println("Oh My : "+T);
               System.out.println("ZoomJ I have been clicked");
in my action performed method it doesnt seem to be able to compare them.. its definately registering that its been clicked because it prints out the 'ive been clicked ' message, and it prints out all the correct names from the Vector, but it doesn't seem to compare them..
