Welcome to asp.net forum.

According to your description above, do you want to find relevant file related to .ascx file? If it is this meaning, Edit -> Find and Replace -> Quick Find, and search ".ascx", then check the Output Windows.

hope it helps.

Search by the name of the user control. If it's being used by specific pages, it must be registered at the top of page. But remember that user controls can also be registered at application level. In that case you have to find out the tag name it's using and search by the tag name.
