referin to a TextBox which is part of a shape group on a sheet.

I have tried to use the code below to rotate a pointer (ShapeName) by an amount governed by variable pos and to place the value of pos in a TextBox that is part of a Group (MeterName).
The rotation works but the naming of the TextBox is faulty, so that fails.
How should I refer to the TextBox?

Many thanks for your post, the code works well.
To make the first part of my code work I had to ungroup ShapeName (the needle) from the group representing the whole meter. It seems from looking at your code (esp.GroupItems) that it might be possible to refer to a subordinate group in the hierarchy of shapes making up the complete shape. Is this so and if yes what would the code look like?
I have not found useful help in any of my usual sources.
