Ok so im creating an EPOS system in WPF not forms or WCF.

I've created a Wrap Panel that has many buttons, each in which represent a certain product (beer)... So i have a corona button, desperado button, coors light button and so on....

Now all of the buttons are in the Wrap Panel. But upon the button being clicked i want that product to be added to a list view.

Do i bind each button to its product row within the SQL database and then once it is clicked the information that is needed in the list view can then just insert?

or do i do something else?

I don't think you can solve it using .net binding behaviour. When you bind a control to a database field, you're assigning a value to one property of the control. (Ex, a label's text ==> product_name)

You should add an event handler for each Button_OnClick, all buttons can share the same handler.

C#

private System.Windows.Forms.Button button1;
this.button1 = new System.Windows.Forms.Button();
this.button1.Click += new System.EventHandler(this.button1_Click);

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
   // use this function to do something
}
