Right click detection on label array?

While I understand that left clicking on a label in an array will place the array index in the button variable of LabelName_Click(button As Integer) and it does, to my surprise this is also the case for right-click.

I wish to detect whether the mouse button clicked was right or left when clicking on any of the members of the label array.

Is is possible to do?

Thanks

I don't do VB6, due to a lack of self loathing, however, looking at this code, you're getting passed a parameter called 'button'. Surely that tells you which button was pressed ?

Param button is indeed the button pressed if I click on a picturebox or non array'ed label, but for an arrayed label the button param is: 0,1,2,3,4,5,6 etc whether I right click or left!

If I left click, we are dragging the form, if I right click I want to pop up my context menu which is the same regardless of which array item I click on in this application.

Is there a static method you can use to find out what mouse button is down ? I'm sure there is one in C++ you could call ? It does sound to me like VB6 is basically broken, but, I knew that :-)
