I make an dictionary application , i want to make a function : user can Ctrl + right click on the word (Inside my own application , not other application) and i show the meaning of word.
How can I recognise a word by press Ctrl+ right mouse click
Can you help me with some demo or can you give me an advice.
Thank you very much.

Hi!
All depends on how you show words in your app. If you use TextBox or RichTextBox - use GetCharIndexFromPosition() to find the right character in right mouse down event. When you have index inside text - it's easy to find word by scanning forward and backward.
If you render words by yourself - then you know where they are!
