Get a Windows Forms control by name in C#

Use the Control.ControlCollection.Find method.

Try this:

this.Controls.Find()

string name = "the_name_you_know";

Control ctn = this.Controls[name];

ctn.Text = "Example...";

Control GetControlByName(string Name)
{
    foreach(Control c in this.Controls)
        if(c.Name == Name)
            return c;

    return null;
}

Disregard this, I reinvent wheels.
