question about button.Text attributes

I have a forms application that I am writing but I am currently stuck on one section. I need to make buttons whose text field changes on button click.

I have tried:

button.Text="string";

and

this.button.Text="string";

in both the button_Click and timer_Tick functions, is there anything else I need to include

I am using C# 2.0 in Visual Studio 2005 with VS.NET (.NET SDK 2.0)

anything would help, thanks

Assuming "button" is the name of the button then it should work, your error (whatever it is) lies elsewhere.

found where it was wrong. Kinda of wish I had known what was going on last weekend. Thanks a lot.
