Wilson,

When you say that you can't access the Name property in code, do you just mean that it doesn't show up in Intellisense? I've seen a few controls that for some reason do not show all their properties in Intellisense, yet if you type it in anyway there's no compiler error and it works as expected. I forget which controls I've discovered that do this, but I *do* remember it being the .Text property. Try to type in Name even though it doesn't show in Intellisense and see if it compiles ok.
