You need to set the window style to accept double click events.
I couldn't figure out how to do that.

Look into ControlStyles.StandardDoubleClick and the Control.DoubleClick
event.
This is the code I have entered. It compiles but the _Click and _DoubleClick
code is never entered:
this.richTextOut.Click += new System.EventHandler(this.richTextOut_Click);
this.richTextOut.Click += new
System.EventHandler(this.richTextOut_DoubleClick
this.SetStyle(ControlStyles.StandardClick |
ControlStyles.StandardDoubleClick,
private void richTextOut_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
...
}
private void richTextOut_DoubleClick(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
....
}
