This is one of those questions that has us scratching our collective heads
and asking "why"?
I believe this would only be possible in design view of the report.

Ur, yes, if you have a pointer to it, or its name.

The subject says the report is open in design view; I assume you know
its name :).
If you have the control name:

reports!yourreport!yourcontrol.name = newname

If you have the pointer:

thecontrol.name = newname
