Oh my...

You probably have the followinf line of code:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

Add to the end of it the following: ,Button2.Click

(please do not forget the comma)

I am not sure if I understand your question. Do you want to create a
'Click' event handler that is used by both buttons?

\\\
Private Sub Button_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click, Button2.Click
...
End Sub

Will,

We understood you very clear. If you use the same procedure for handling
both events you can easily reproduce what you want. If you do not understand
the sender and e arguments you should do some research related to them and
to object oriented programming.

i dont think you guys understood me ... what i mean is if i click

cmdButton1, a message pops up ("Hello World") ..

no if i try to call the me.cmdButton1_click event in cmdButton2,

me.cmdbutton1_click(Sender as Object,e as System.eventArgs) how do i use
Sender as Object and the e as System.eventArgs ? what do they mean ?

IMHO an event should fire *because it happened*. You should not be the one
calling cmdButton1_click. This is just bad conception...

Example: Use Sender
Private Sub LableLeaveEvent(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles lblBuyerBroker.MouseLeave
Dim strLabname As String = System.Convert.ToString(sender.Name())
Select Case strLabname
Case "lblBuyerBroker"
lblBuyerBroker.Cursor = Cursors.Default
End Select
End sub

Example: Use e
Private Sub NumbValidation_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles txtUnitQty.KeyPress
If (Not Char.IsDigit(e.KeyChar) And Not Char.IsControl(e.KeyChar)) Or Char.IsPunctuation(e.KeyChar) Then
If e.KeyChar = Char.Parse("-") Or e.KeyChar = Char.Parse(".") Then
e.Handled = False
Else
e.Handled = True
End If
End If
End Sub

You can wire both click events to one procedure or not, but I would separate
out your logic from the button event itself. The benefit to this is that
you can call DoSomething from anywhere (not just these events).

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
DoSomething
End Sub

Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
DoSomething
End Sub

or simply....
Private Sub Button_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click, Button2.Click
DoSomething
End Sub

Private Sub DoSomething()
msgbox("Hello World")
End Sub
