These property play role when buttons are nested within container controls such as Repeater, GridView etc. On button click, typically, the container control will raise RowCommand event where you can refer to CommandName and CommandArgument values of button. CommandName allows to different between different buttons on the same row (Edit, Delete, Select etc) while CommandArgument is generally row identifier (can be index or primary key of the data being bound).
