Array of buttons return indexof?

Question

Hi,
I have an array of buttons. How do I get the value of the array so i know which button the user clicks on. If they click on button 10 i need to get the value 10. I cant copy and past the code here because its too long.If someones interested i can email the code and what i'm trying to do. If someone could give me a generic example of a situation that would be great.
Thanks in advance
