Does the name property have any useful development applications? For example, if a field is created with the name "Text1", what can I do with it? In some report writing packages you can refer to the control by reference, but it seems that you can't do that in CR (version 9).

 
In some instances yes. You can point a subreport to open based on a report object. Some people use the reoprt objects to do style sheets.
