How to get click event for MaskEditBox

I'm using VB5 and I would like to perform an action when the user clicks on a MaskEditBox control.
But this control doesn't have a click event!
Does anybody know how I can solve this problem?
Do I have to use API's or some other control?

Wow!, that was a find.. no click event?!!

If have heard there is a new service pack for the Vb 5.0's version.. but i dont think there will be such a major change as to add a new event!

IF you notice it has no mouse events at all. no mousemove, no mouse down..

So only way out is Subclassing i think. After you subclass you can look for WM_MOUSEDOWN, followed by UP with in a certain interval of time, and region too.

Or you can look for WM_ACTIVATE with WA_CLICKACTIVE for wParam.
Try it. if it works / wont work let me know.

Thank's for your reply
I'm afraid to loose time if I'm using the API because I'm not really an expert with API.
For the moment, I solve the problem by using the GotFocus event of the MaskEditBox.
