Actually you don't need to override the click event to get select all to work. The click event fires late enough that select all will work just fine when added to that event.


Yeah, but I believe in encapsulating the functionality I want into the control and not cluttering up my form code to get a control to do what I want.

The focus event unfortunatly fires to early causing the select all to be undone (again only when clicked). Delaying the select all was the easiest solution as far as I could tell.


This is also a reason to create your own control. You get greater flexibility over what you need to do when to get your functionality to work properly.
