Determine control on which context menu was opened [duplicate]

Question

This question already has answers here:

context menu parent? (3 answers)

Closed 8 years ago.

I have a WinForm application with tekstbox controls that are connected to a ContextMenuStrip. If I rightclick on a textbox the context menu is (of course) opened. As far as I can see the ContextMenuStrip events don't give any info about the control on which the context menu was opened.

I can't use a work-around by looking at the focused control, as the rightclick doesn't give focus to the textbox (if it hasn't have focus before the rightclick).

So my question is: how can I determine the control on which the context menu was opened?

Answer 1

Contextmenu has a SourceControl property which you should be able to use :)
