.NET Forum / Windows Forms / WinForm General / October 2004Trigger mousedown in derived TextBox from code
Hi, I am wondering if someone knows how to trigger a mousdown event in a TextBox from code as if someone clicked the textbox. I have tried to derive a TextBox and manualy call the RaiseMouseEvent metod whith a propper MouseEventArgs, but this doesnt work the way I want. The thing is that tre text cursor doesn´t get positioned in the textboxs text acording to the click event coordinates. it allways gets positioned first in the textboxs text. Does someone know a way to do this? Thanx! Peter What is the general problem you are trying to solve, maybe there is a better way?

The thing is that the Grid Control catches the focus on the first mouse click. This means that i have to click twice on the textbox to focus it and place the text cursor where i want in the text. Wich is where i clicked. There is no way around it exept handeling the click event that the Grid catches and passing it on to the textbox. So this is kind of what i am trying to do. /Peter I have > What is the general problem you are trying to solve, maybe there is a > better way?

Instead a better way would be to send a window message to the control.
