WOW.

Everyone is telling you how to click a button from the event handler of another button.

But, nobody has mentioned that you shouldn't be doing this at all! What you should be doing is moving your code from the event handlers into their own methods. Then you call those methods from the Click event handlers and you also get the benefit of being able to call that code from anywhere else in the form code WITHOUT having to simulate clicking other buttons.

Solution 1

You can call like this

Button1.Click += new System.EventHandler(this.Button1_Click);
Button2.Click += new System.EventHandler(this.Button2_Click);

private void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
     //Some Code
     Button2_Click(Button2, e);
}

Solution 2

If I get you right, you want to perform a click on button 2 programmatically, when the user clicks button 1, is that right?

If so:

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

  'Whatever you want to do

   button1.PerformClick()

End Sub

See this Link[^] for information about PerformClick.

Oops. Sitting in a German office, damn this auto-translation thingie. I thought I selected the content to be shown in English. Thanks.

Solution 3

Hi,
you can either invoke the event handler of button2 with in the button1 click as

Button2_Click(nothing,e) or by Button2.PerformClick()

The differences are , in the first case you can re-use the event arguments where it is not possible in the second approach.
