C# linkbutton question object does not contain a definition for CommandArgument

[needin4mation]

I have some VB.NET code that I am trying to convert. I'm not sure what
to do here and was hoping you could help.

Sub PagerButtonClic k(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
'used by external paging UI
Dim arg As String = sender.CommandA rgument

is the code from:

I have tried this code in c# (converted as best I could) but I cannot
get the sender.CommandA rgument to work.

It's just a button that calls a function on the server side. This
signature:

object sender, System.EventArg s e

does not have an CommandArgument .

I tried a cast like:

(System.Web.UI. WebControls.Dat aGridCommandEve ntArgs) sender, but it has
no effect.

I don't know what to do. Thank you for any help. How can I access the
command argument of a button that is not in the datagrid?

CommandArgument should come from EventArgs rather than from Object. Try

Dim arg As String = e.CommandArgume nt

I won't work as EventArgs or sender. There is no CommandArgument for
object or System.EventArg s. The VB Code allows it, but not the C# code.
