How do I set a click event for a form?

Question

I have a c# form (let\'s call it MainForm) with a number of custom controls on it. I\'d like to have the MainForm.OnClick() method fire anytime someone clicks on the form re

Answer 1

In the form's ControlAdded event, add a MouseClick handler to the control, with the Address of the form's click event. I haven't tested this, but it might work.

Private Sub Example_ControlAdded(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.ControlEventArgs) Handles Me.ControlAdded

    AddHandler e.Control.MouseClick, AddressOf Example_MouseClick
End Sub

Private Sub Example_MouseClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles Me.MouseClick
    MessageBox.Show("Click")
End Sub
