    Writing text on a picture background

    Ok, here is what I have and what I want to do. I have a background image on a form. I want to place text on that background image with transparency. I can do all of this but I want to know if I can make the text that I just placed on the background "clickable"???

    Any help would be appreciated as I am on a tight deadline with this project and I have pulled out just about all of my hair fooling with this task.

    Thanks in advance,
    Noble

    You could use the mousedown event of your form.

    Since you draw the text yourself, you should know the position, height and width of the text. So you could check the position of the "mouse" and see if it is inside the text.

    Will the LinkLabel OpenNETCF provides work for you? You can set the backcolor to transparent and it is already clickable.
