Differentiating Click Events

-----------------------------------

Is there a way to get whether the user is right clicking or left clicking? Is there an event for that or something? I'm doing a minesweeper game, and I wanted a flag to appear when the user right-clicks.

Assuming you're developing a Windows Form app, the Click event is only raised with a left mouse button click. You'd have to use MouseDown or MouseUp. See http://www.homeandlearn.co.uk/net/nets10p2.html for details. 

The API reference for Control.MouseUp and Control.MouseDown is helpful to review:
