Diabling or removing the right mouse click option on a Control

Hi All,

IS there a way to disable or removed the right mouse click option on a Control ie. when using the control on VB form.

Thanks

In many cases (not all) you can use the mousedown event of the control to detect that the right button was clicked. When this happens, disable the control, and enable it again.

Hi There,

I've tried using the mousedown event on this control, but it doesn't work, I've tried on other controls before and it works. So, there is not a solution to this?

I'm not sure, what control are we talking about?

It's a date user control.

Date user control, like in "Microsoft Calender Control" or like in "Some third party usercontrol"?

It is a third party control contains a calendar control and a text box. The RaiseEvent for mousedown and mouseup is done for the usercontrol only. Is that a problem.

Thanks

What you need to do is to put the code in the mousedown event of each of the controls on the usercontrol.
