MouseClick event

Question

Im trying to use the mouseclick event in a textbox. Once the text box is clicked text in display box(label) should clear..
I've tried two ways...

public void TextBox_Mouse Click(object.....)
{
     displaybox.text = "";
}

Or..

...
if (TextBox.MouseClick = new MouseClickEvent(TextBox_MouseClick))
{
     displaybox.Text = "";
}


Neither worked.....What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

When you add Click event for a textbox using IDE, it will be like below
public void TextBox1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
displaybox.text = "";
}
The two methods in your code does not match with the above syntax.
Please change and try now.

Hi - I think my information can help:

Create a new Windows C# Application (or work on the current ).
Then add a "textBox" from the "ToolBox" in the Visual Studio.

Then add some text that must be there from the beginning: 

 
Figure A: A textbox with value already typed.

Add the following code:

 private void textBox1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
 {
      if (textBox1.Text.Contains("Type something here..."))
      {
            textBox1.Text = "";  
      }
      else
      {

      }
 }

 private void Form1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
 {
       textBox1.Text = "Type something here...";   
 }

Code-snippet1: A simple C# to handle "textBox" clean in "textBox_click" events. 

 
Figure B: If we now click inside the "textbox" the text will disappear and
it will become clean.

I hope this information helped you solve your problem..

Have a nice day...

Sincerely,
Fisnik
