The String.Format method works in a similar way to the Console.Write or Console.WriteLine methods. The first argument can contain numbered placeholders enclosed in curly braces i.e. {0} and {1} in this example. These placeholders are replaced in order by subsequent arguments to the method. So {0} is replaced by m + 1 and {1} is replaced by n + 1 after first converting them to strings. It's a useful way of formatting strings which can be easier to write (and read) than using the '+' or concatenation operator.

Check out this thread which contains some code for creating a chess board using a 2D Array of Panel controls: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6733310/creating-a-chess-board-using-windows-forms If you set gridSize = 5 clr1 = Black and clr2 = Red then that should draw your board when the form loads. To give each Panel a name based on the row and column it's in make the following change: var newPanel = new Panel { Size = new Size(tileSize tileSize) Location = new Point(tileSize * n tileSize * m ) Name = String.Format(Square {0}{1} m + 1 n + 1) }; and to add a click handler for each red square add this code at the end of the inner for statement just after the if/else statement which sets the BackColor property: if (newPanel.BackColor == Color.Red) { newPanel.Click += RedSquareClicked; } Finally add this handler: private void RedSquareClicked(object sender EventArgs e) { // sample code to identify the square clicked Panel p = (Panel)sender; MessageBox.Show(p.Name +  was clicked); }
