I assume you are using MFC. In your CView class, keep some member variables like x, y and clickflag. Initialize clickflag to false in your CView constructor.
Then use ClassWizard to create a handler for WM_LBUTTONDOWN.
Now in your OnLButtonDown method do something like this:
Finally, in your OnDraw you can do this:
and that should about cover it
Hope this helps

Now in your OnLButtonDown method do something like this:
void CNameClickView::OnLButtonDown(UINT nFlags, CPoint point) { CView::OnLButtonDown(nFlags, point); //point is the point within your view area that the user clicked the mouse x = point.x; y = point.y;// we have finally clicked on the view so set our flag clickflag = true;// Inalidate the view area so that it will be redrawn next OnDraw Invalidate();//Mark the window as updated UpdateWindow();} Finally, in your OnDraw you can do this:
void CNameClickView::OnDraw(CDC* pDC){// standard OnDraw stuff. CTestclickDoc* pDoc = GetDocument(); ASSERT_VALID(pDoc);// if the user has clicked on the view, draw his name at the mouse pointer if (clickflag) { char* yourname = "Your Name";//pDC is your device context, which you should use for all your drawing with MFC pDC->TextOut( x, y, yourname, strlen(yourname) ); }} and that should about cover it
