So let's say I have 8 buttons in form.cs[Design] and once I click any of the buttons, it will call the same sql procedure. However. I don't know how to write that portion. I think I should put the loop inside this

C#

private void btn1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
       {

       }

. Could anyone pls suggest me on that? Thank you.

What I have tried:

C#

private void btn1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

        }

To add to my answer that Rick linked to, inside the button event handler you can access the actual button that was clicked via the sender parameter:

C#

private void MyButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
   {
   if (sender is Button btn)
      {
      Console.WriteLine(btn.Text);
      ...
      }
   }

"looping through" buttons doesn't make any real sense, as the user can only physically click on one of them at a time!
