The IndexOfName method enables you to determine where an item specified by the NewsItem.Name property value is located within the item collection represented by the current object. The collection of item objects can be accessed via the ASPxNewsControl.Items property of a news control.

This method searches the item collection for the specified item and, if found, returns the index value of the first occurrence. If no instance is found, negative one (-1) is returned. The collection of items is searched forward starting with the first element, and ending with the last one.
