Hi David,
What do you mean by incredibly slow? How many buttons are we talking about?

I just did a test with 1000 buttons and it took 3.47 milliseconds. With 5000 
buttons it was 16.78 milliseconds.

Did I miss something?

Cheers.

I'm with you James.

I usually do something like (psuedoish)

foreach (Control c in this.Controls)
{
   Button b = c as Button;
   if (b != null)
   {
       if (b.Name.ToString().ToLower().Trim() = "foo") b.Text = "bar";
   }
}

I have no issues with speed. I also do this recursively with no issues 
for controls in controls/etc.
