Getting a button click without knowing the button

Question

I have 22 buttons and i want all of them to run the same method which will: 1.Get the name of the button that was hit. 2.Perform a task based on which button was hit.(probably a switch statement). Is there and easier/ faster way to set the click methods without setting all 22 buttons? is there at least a way to find the button that was clicked?

namespace WindowsApplication2 { public partial class Form1 : Form { public Form1() { InitializeComponent(); } public void addHandlers() { button2.Click += new EventHandler(button1_Click); button3.Click += new EventHandler(button1_Click); } private void button1_Click(object sender EventArgs e) { MessageBox.Show(You Clicked  + ((Button)(sender)).Text); string ButtonText = ((Button)(sender)).Text; switch (ButtonText) { case button1: //Do Somthing case button2: //Do Somthing default: //Do Somthing } } private void Form1_Load(object sender EventArgs e) { addHandlers(); } } }
