        Solution2 soln = (Solution2)_applicationObject.Solution;  
        MessageBox.Show("Finding a project item in the solution.");  
        ProjectItem proj;  
        proj =  
 soln.FindProjectItem  
(soln.Projects.Item(1).ProjectItems.Item(1).Name.ToString());  
        MessageBox.Show("The project item found is: "   
+ proj.Name.ToString());  
    }  
    catch (SystemException ex)  
    {  
        MessageBox.Show("ERROR: " + ex);  
    }

Remarks

FindProjectItem performs an ItemOperations.OpenFile type search for the given file name. The first project found to have the item returns its ProjectItem object for the name. If the file is not found in the solution, null is returned.
