How to know the event sender name?

soman

Hi I have three buttons on a form,and i have written a single module to handle the click event, when the click event occurs, I am unable to know from which button the event has occured. Is there any way to know the name of the button that generated the event. Thanx in advance Regards Soman

You can also try this: private void button_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e) { if (sender is Button) { MessageBox.Show((sender as Button).Text); } }

Hi Try the following code in your event handler method. private void button_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e) { if (sender is Button) { Button b = (Button) sender; string name = b.Name; } } Simon
