Question

I am trying to get id or name of for example checkbox from event in a windows form application in c#. Is it possible ?
Thank you..

    private void aktifMWcheckBox_CheckedChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        string cbname = sender.Name; // is it possible something like that ???
    }

Answer 1

Yes, for controls’ events you can always cast sender to Control (because every control inherits from it):

var ctrl = (Control)sender;
string cbname = ctrl.Name;

Also, if you are sure that is for example a CheckBox event, you can cast to it:

var ctrl = (CheckBox)sender;
string cbname = ctrl.Name;
