        Me.Controls.AddButton(Me.Range("B2", "C3"), "ParentButton")
    ParentButton.Text = "Click to view parent" 
    AddHandler ParentButton.Click, AddressOf parentButton_Click
End Sub 

Private Sub ParentButton_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
    Dim ClickedButton As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Controls.Button = _
        CType(sender, Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Controls.Button)

    MsgBox("The parent is: " & ClickedButton.Parent.ToString())
End Sub

private void DisplayParent()
{
    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Controls.Button parentButton =
            this.Controls.AddButton(this.Range["B2", "C3"],
            "parentButton");
    parentButton.Text = "Click to view parent";
    parentButton.Click += new EventHandler(parentButton_Click);
}

void parentButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Controls.Button clickedButton =
        (Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Controls.Button)sender;

    MessageBox.Show("The parent is: " +
        clickedButton.Parent.ToString());
}
