You can record the action you want to test and then customize the auto-generated code inside the UIMap.Designer.cs file to select the control you need. For each control you use when you record your test the CodedUi Test Builder creates a new class inside this file. If your controls are similar (eg. control1, control2...) assign the parameter name to the Search Properties of this control:

public class UIItemWindow : WinWindow
{

    public UIItemWindow()
    {
        #region Search Criteria
        //Here assign the paramter to the search properties of the control
        this.SearchProperties[WinWindow.PropertyNames.Name] = parameterName;
        #endregion
    }

    #region Properties
    public UIItemWindow1 UIItemWindow1
    {
        get
        {
            if ((this.mUIItemWindow1 == null))
            {
                this.mUIItemWindow1 = new UIItemWindow1(this);
            }
            return this.mUIItemWindow1;
        }
    }
    #endregion

    #region Fields
    private UIItemWindow1 mUIItemWindow1;
    #endregion
}
