Accessing a control by name

If I know the name of a control can I access it (change its text etc)
without looking through all the controls for one with this name?

Thanks

Sorry Herfried, I should have been more explicit. I was hoping I could
get to it directly without searching the array. Guess that is what I
will have to do.


An alternative way is using a hashtable, as shown in the article.

I have the name of a control in a string variable and I want to change one of the controls properties. Right now I recursively scan all the controls on the form until I get one whose name matches the name in my string variable, then I know I have the correct control and can proceed to change the property. However all that searching seems like overkill. Does anyone know of a way to directly access the control if it's name is in a string...
