To find information in a WinForms UI attribute id, you can use the Control.FromHandle() method to obtain a reference to the window handle for the form, and then use the Find() method to search for a control with the specific attribute ID. Here is some example code:

csharp
// Obtain a reference to the window handle for the form
IntPtr handle = this.Handle;

// Use the Control.FromHandle() method to obtain a reference to the form
Control form = Control.FromHandle(handle);

// Use the Find() method to search for a control with the specified attribute ID
Control control = form.Controls.Find("attribute_id", true).FirstOrDefault();

// Check if the control was found
if (control != null)
{
// Do something with the control
}
else
{
// The control was not found
}

In this example, replace "attribute_id" with the actual attribute ID that you want to search for. The true parameter in the Find() method indicates that the search should be recursive, searching all child controls of the form. The FirstOrDefault() method returns the first matching control, or null if no control is found.
