AutoSelect textbox

Did some googling for this problem and didn't find an answer, then figured it out on my own - so sharing some info for other developers.

Problem: Want a text box to "autoselect" the entire text when a user clicks on it. Just doing a textBox1.SelectAll() in the Enter event doesn't do it, I think becuase the click event clears the selection when your placing the cursor in it.

My solution was to pu the textBox1.SelectAll() call in the MouseUp event.
