"Select all" in all textboxes

private void textBox1_MouseClick(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
        {
            textBox1.SelectAll();
        }

This works but I have 6 textBoxes. Is there any easier way instead of adding event listeners for each and every textbox? Or a shorthand or something?

Thanks.

Add the same event handler to each and have ((TextBox)sender).SelectAll() to ensure the one that is clicked on is highlighted.

If you're looking for something more generic create a derived class of TextBox containing the same.
