I have the exact same problem.. the single click event always fires
regardless of how many times the user clicks on the label....I thought
my Label or Form or entire Database might be corrupted so, i created
a new database, with a form and a new label with an on-click event and
on-double-click event that each call seperate procedures..but i had
the same problem... the single click event always fired.

Any ideas?

From VB Help on the dbl-click event:

If the DblClick event doesn't occur within the double-click time limit of
the system, the form, form section, or control recognizes two Click events
instead of a single DblClick event. The double-click time limit depends on
the setting under Double-Click Speed on the Buttons tab of the Mouse option
of Windows Control Panel.

Thank you for replying :-)

Double clicking works all over my computer, even on another label
where i have a double click event so, i dont think there is need to
adjust my windows control panel settings. I seriously think my ms
access database is corrupt. I've been programming in it for 2 years
and every week its emailed back and forth, compacted and copied
countless times.

Cheers

From Access help for the DblClick event:

"Double-clicking a control causes both Click and DblClick events to occur."

So that's the way it's designed to work.

Thanks :-)

I had created a label months ago which seemed to work well when i
double clicked it.. but after reading your reply.. i rechecked the
labels event code and noticed that infact the single click AND double
click events were both firing - i had not noticed before cause the
double click event fired last and changed whatever the single click
event did.

Thanks again.
