Create Add Dynamic Button Controls In Asp.Net Handle Click Event

This example explains how to Create or Add Dynamic Controls or Button In Asp.Net page andhandle respective events like Click Event.

I am creating one button and Label dynamically and setting Label text property in Click Event.
I have used Style property to place the control on exact position or location on page.

Object of control must be declared globally to be available in all events of page, and should be created and added to form in Page_Init event, properties such as Text should be assigned inPage_Load.
