Example

This class module shows how to define a sink class called MouseListener that listens for events fired by mouse actions in the active window. It declares the object variable vsoWindow by using the WithEvents keyword. The class module also contains event handlers for the MouseDown, MouseMove, and MouseUp events.

To run this example, insert a new class module in your Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) project, name it MouseListener, and insert the following code in the module.

Dim WithEvents vsoWindow As Window 
 
Private Sub Class_Initialize() 
 
 Set vsoWindow = ActiveWindow 
 
End Sub 
 
Private Sub Class_Terminate() 
 
 Set vsoWindow = Nothing 
 
End Sub 
 
Private Sub vsoWindow_MouseDown(ByVal Button As Long, ByVal KeyButtonState As Long, ByVal x As Double, ByVal y As Double, CancelDefault As Boolean) 
 
 Debug.Print "Button is: "; Button 
 
End Sub 
 
Private Sub vsoWindow_MouseMove(ByVal Button As Long, ByVal KeyButtonState As Long, ByVal x As Double, ByVal y As Double, CancelDefault As Boolean) 
 
 Debug.Print "x-position is "; x 
 Debug.Print "y-position is "; y 
 
End Sub 
 
Private Sub vsoWindow_MouseUp(ByVal Button As Long, ByVal KeyButtonState As Long, ByVal x As Double, ByVal y As Double, CancelDefault As Boolean) 
 
 If Button = 1 Then 
 
 Debug.Print "Left mouse button released" 
 
 ElseIf Button = 2 Then 
 
 Debug.Print "Right mouse button released" 
 
 ElseIf Button = 16 Then 
 
 Debug.Print "Center mouse button released" 
 
 End If 
 
End Sub

Then, insert the following code in the ThisDocument project.

Dim myMouseListener As MouseListener 
 
Private Sub Document_DocumentSaved(ByVal doc As IVDocument) 
 
 Set myMouseListener = New MouseListener 
 
End Sub 
 
Private Sub Document_BeforeDocumentClose(ByVal doc As IVDocument) 
 
 Set myMouseListener = Nothing 
 
End Sub

Save the document to initialize the class, and then click anywhere in the active window to fire a MouseDown event. In the Immediate window, the handler prints the value that represents the mouse button that was clicked to fire the event.
