Is mouse cursor over the control?

[Blaz Ziherl]

I have this control that has no MouseEnter or MouseLeave events. How
could I find out whether the mouse cursor is over that control or not?
Is there an equivalent to the WindowFromPoint API function available
in VB.NET?

Don't all Controls have these events?

System.Windows.Forms.Control.PointToClient
System.Windows.Forms.Control.PointToScreen

Are you sure you don't have these events? From which base class does
your control inherit?

BTW: You can get the cursor's position using 'Cursor.Position' and then
using the controls' 'PointToClient' (and 'PointToScreen') methods to get
control coordinates.

Thanks for your help. I have solved the problem with the PointToClient method.
