[AccessD] Is mouse Clicked?

Then use the MouseMove event of the control.  It has a button argument,
but it can be a bit tricky since each control only reacts to the mouse
entering its range, not to it leaving.  You can use the MouseMove event
of the form to trap some of that, but another way is to create a
transparent control that covers the area, put it behind the other
controls and set its MouseMove event to cancel whatever action you took.

Charlotte,

I'm not trying to do the drag thing.  I have a number of objects on a
form...and as the mouse moves over these objects...I would like to do
something depending on whether the right, left, or neither button is
held in the down position.

Thanks,

Mark A. Matte
