Selectable label

[eclipse]

Hi,

I'm sure, that this one will be very easy (I've just started learning C#
and got stuck with this one How to make a label, which content can be
selected by user and copied to clipboard from the context menu? Do I have
to create it (the context menu) by myself, or may I use some predefined
property?

Use a TextBox control set its properties to look like a label.
ReadOnly = True; BackColor, ForeColor, etc.

You must create the contextmenu yourself. Maybe you should use a textbox
without border and 'ReadOnly = True' instead.

I've tried it before, but the problem was, that the content of the TextBox
was initialy selected. I've set the "TabStop" propert to false and it
works fine.

Thank you.

It works fine, thank you.
