Mouse Events for Systray Component

[Torsten]

I made a Component which is able to add/delete/manipulate etc. an icon in the systray. It works fine.
By programming the events, i am able to use Mouseup, down and DoubleClick for Left, Middle and Right Button.
To raise the event of a simple MouseClick I have to decide whether to use the UP or DOWN procedure.
But the UP and Down Procedure is also an element of the DoubleClick !! So every time i click twice I also get the reaction of Mouseup and down.
The difficulty is, that a fast click can also mean a double click is following. When i click slowly i can proof this by watching the doubleclicktime.

Perhaps anyone has got a simple idea of simulating a ClickEvent that comes only by clicking once?

Thanks for each idea...even if won't work!

I've done some tests on the form, click events seems to activate on the first click, but the doubleclick will activate on the second. Same is for catching the events on the trayicon:
WM_MBUTTONDBLCLK
WM_RBUTTONDBLCLK
WM_LBUTTONDOWN
Use these to activate the doubleclick, and if you don't get a doubleclick message then it's a single click.

Thanks for your answer !

When I start to press a mouse button (for example the left one), I get the MouseDOWN event. OK.
After leaving the Mouse Button the Up event follows. When both events are very fast, I don't know if this will be a single click or a double click. In my opinion I have to wait for the next events and look when they come. This means i have to store the values and when nothing follows, the single click will be delayed.

Do you know, if the doubleclick creates an Event of:
a) first DBLClick then UP
or b) first UP then Double
