Two textbox and one contextmenu

[ASMA]

Hi everybody

I have several textboxes with one context menu.

How can I know the textbox where the mouse clicked to raise the menu and pass it to the "MenuItem1.Click"

Thanks in advance.

Can you go into more detail about what you want to do?

Somtimes, the easy answer is the hardest to find.

The textbox itself has a clicked event. You can use this to pass whatever information you want.

HI ASMA
yes dotnotdoc is right you can do easily whatever you want in Textbox1_MouseDown or Textbox1_MouseUp event but you might want something different..so here is the logic for you case

Dim myTextbox as TextBox
Private Sub MenuItem1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MenuItem1.Click
'which text box
If Not myTextbox Is Nothing Then
Select Case myTextbox.Name
Case Is = "TextBox1"
MsgBox("Textbox1 is clicked&quot
Case Is = "TextBox2"
MsgBox("Textbox2 is clicked&quot
End Select
End If

End Sub

Private Sub TextBox1_MouseDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.MouseDown
If e.Button.Equals(MouseButtons.Right) Then
myTextbox = sender
End If
End Sub

Private Sub TextBox2_MouseDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles TextBox2.MouseDown
If e.Button.Equals(MouseButtons.Right) Then
myTextbox = sender
End If
End Sub
