How to know when a button is clicked in C#

Oyetoke Toby

Pls I need your help in some cases about button in C#. How can I know when a particular button is clicked. I want to use the if condition statement to write the event. So I want it to do something when particular button is clicked. I want to put all the code inside one function or class then I can call it anytime. For example

private void showPanel()
{
if (dashPanelButton.Clicked == true)
{
dashPanel.Visible = true;
}
else if(studInfoBtn.Clicked == true)
{
studInfoPanel.Visible = true;
}
else
{
homePanel.Visible = true;
}
}

Note the above code is just an assumption not really a working code. Just using it to explain myself

Thanks for writing below links i hope helpful for you.........:)
Click is an event that fires immediately after you release the mouse button. So if you want to check in the handler for button2.Click if button1 was clicked before, all you could do is have a handler for button1.Click which sets a bool flag of your own making to true

okay, it seems strange . You can directly register the event handlers by double clicking on the button.Isn't it??
Still if you want to know then do this, Define boolean properties/variables (each with name of button in it- just to identify) and set them when button is clicked.
Or alternative is to Cast sender ( object) to Button object and query the name.
Please mark it as answer if that helps resolve the issue.
