Answer 1

Create a single function with the shared behavior in your window, then call that function from both your loaded handler and your click handler.

Answer 2

in you page_loaded event handler method, make a call to the click event like this:

_buttonName_click(sender, new RoutedEventArgs())

Answer 3

You could use Automation to do it aswell - I've seen this suggested some places as the more flexible/robust method to use, but it seems a bit heavy weight to me compared to just calling the method you already have directly.

Answer 4

As per this blog post in WinForms this was really easy by just calling PerformClick(), but in WPF you can do it with Automation, however as a commenter mentioned it's really easy if you have access to the button to just use RaiseEvent.

someButton.RaiseEvent(new RoutedEventArgs(Button.ClickEvent));

But as previously answered, if you only have a single handler that needs to be notified, then simply call that handler method directly.
