Trying to assign label to a variable with java script.

[Rick74]

Hey guys, I'm having trouble trying to assign a label to a variable with Java.  Would any of you have any experience at this?

1. var getFont:                            UILabel;
2.  
3. function Start ()
4. {
5.       getFont                   = GameObject.Find("btn_Cow/cost");
6. }

Of course, cost resides inside "btn_Cow" and is a simple widget/label.  So far I've tried; Material.Find, GameObject.Find, and UILabel.Find.  All give me the error;

Assets/Scripts/CowButtonCoolDown.js(28,50): BCE0022: Cannot convert 'UnityEngine.GameObject' to 'UILabel'.

I can manually assign the UILabel just fine(drag and drop through the inspector), but I would prefer the code auto assign it, so I don't have too.

I'm sorry guys, I guess typing this out helped me get to the answer.  Which is the variable is a game object and by assigning it to the UILabel, it just knows what it is.

My bad.
