FindChild: Is it case sensitive?

I have a wpf application and the UI object I am working with has similar name as another one at different level in the object tree.



For example:



Root

-----WPFObject("Component")

-------Child1

---------WPFObject("component")



I need to find the object at the lower level; that is "component" but FindChild finds the object "Component" with the capital 'C' first.



Is there a way to tell FindChild to treat all names as case sensitive?



thoughts?

    PropNames parameter in FindChild method could be an array




    An array of strings containing the names of properties or a single property name.  The method returns an object by the values of these properties (property).

    Hi Enrique,





    You can either use additional identification criteria, as suggested by Yuliya, or limit the search depth to find WPFObject("Component") first and then use WPFObject("Component").FindChild to find WPFObject("component").
