# Finding child control in WPF

Hi,

I am working on a [WPF](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/304/wpf) [application](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/12824/calculator-application-in-android) where I have a [requirement](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/view/85169/becoming-an-influencer-requirement-of-skills-and-knowledge) to get all chils of specific type, but I [am unable](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/95314/how-do-i-access-a-group-link-in-telegram-if-i-am-unable-to-access-the-link) to get all child [controls](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/66/how-to-create-controls-at-run-time-in-csharp-dot-net) of specific type in WPF.

Please help.

Hi Rajesh,

To get list of all childs in WPF you need to use VisualTreeHelper class.\
You can use VisualTreeHelper.GetChild(object parent, int childIndex)

Check my following Blog where I have written code to get list of all child of specific type.

Hope, the above link will help you.

Thanks.
