    Resolved [RESOLVED] [2005] Checklistbox rightclick focus

    I have a small problem puzzling me.
    I have 4checkedlist boxes on the same form. And i assign the same context menu to each. When i click on the items in one checked listbox, it gets selected and checked. I can do this to more than one listbox. But when i RIGHTCLICK on one(not the last listbox to get the focus) listbox, my cxtMenu comes up(with menus Edit and Delete), but it shows that the listbox that has the focus is the one where the last item was selected using a LEFT MouseClick.

    How can i get the latest listbox where i rightclick to be the one focused.

    I have struggled with the explanation, but if you dont get it better let me know.

    What event are you showing the CM? Sounds like it may be the MouseDown but in order to let Windows update the selection and focus cues you should try using the MouseUp event instead.

    Actually! There is no event at all. In the designer, For each listbox,i just Added my contextMenuStrip1 and Bingo! Using a right Mouse Click, it just pops up.
