Custom controls and handling double click event?

Andrew MC

hi,
I have a windows custom control with a picturebox and a button on it's default panel. This windows custom control will be added to a windows form. There is another windows form called form2. when the user double clicks on the custom control, it should load form2. in designer when i double clicked the custom control on the form, it creates a load() event for that custom control. But i need double click event, how this can be done?
thanks

If you look in the Properties Box for the custom control on the form under the Events tab (lightning bolt symbol), the DoubleClick event should be listed there. Double clicking it (no pun intended!) should open up a skeleton event handler to which you can add your code. For example:

private void userControl11_DoubleClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Form2 f2 = new Form2();
f2.Show();
}
