Changing color of selected Button in a group

Hi,

Imagine we have a group of buttons. How it is possible to change the color of a button when it is clicked and if another button of same group is clicked the last one turns back to normal and new one which is clicked changes its color?!

Thanks.

The easiest way? When a button is clicked, change all of the colors of the buttons back to the default color, then change the color of the clicked button.

It will be do able like that, but when you have lots of groups and buttons it will be pain in the ***, I am looking for a more general way.

The "more general way" that you are looking for is called a loop. Add all of the buttons to a collection and just iterate through them.

Code:

---

void button_Click( object sender, EventArgs e )
{
    foreach( Button b in SomeButtonCollection )
    {
        b.BackColor = SystemColors.Control
    }

    ((Button)sender).BackColor = SomeOtherColor;
}
