Visual Basic

      Button btn = new Button();
      btn.Name = "SomeName1";
      btn.Click += new EventHandler(btn_Click);

      Button btn = new Button();
      btn.Name = "SomeName2";
      btn.Click += new EventHandler(btn_Click);

.
And so one

timer.Tick += new EventHandler(timer_Tick);

System.Windows.Forms.Timer timer = sender as System.Windows.Forms.Timer;
