calling a method associated to an event

[Abdessamad Belangour]

Hi all,
Suppose we have a method associated to a button object. Clicking on this
button triggers the associated method. for example : private void
btnAdd_Click(ob ject sender, System.EventArg s e)
How can i do if i want to call it without the button been clicked ?
Thanks.

Re: calling a method associated to an event

Abdessamad,

The method that you attach is just that, a method, so you can call it
normally, passing the parameters that you want to pass. You can pass null,
like this:

// Call the event handler.
btnAdd_Click(nu ll, null);

But you have to be careful, because the button handler code might be
depending on those parameters. Most likely, you will want to simulate a
button click like this:

// Call the event handler.
btnAdd_Click(bt nAdd, EventArgs.Empty );

Hope this helps.
