I want to play a sound when the left mouse button is clicked anywhere in my form without having to place Mouse click events on every single control in the form. Is there a way to accomplish this?

See Question&Answers more detail:osYou can detect the Windows notification before it is dispatched to the control with the focus with the IMessageFilter interface. Make it look similar to this:
public partial class Form1 : Form, IMessageFilter {
public Form1() {
InitializeComponent();
Application.AddMessageFilter(this);
this.FormClosed += delegate { Application.RemoveMessageFilter(this); };
}
public bool PreFilterMessage(ref Message m) {
// Trap WM_LBUTTONDOWN
if (m.Msg == 0x201) {
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("BEEP!");
}
return false;
}
}
This works for any form in your project, not just the main one.
