As I understand, you need to simulate a click. The comprehensive way of doing this is Windows API SendInput, which you need to P/Invoke.

I never had to do such a thing and therefore didn't know SendInput. It looks good. My 5.

Thank you, Olivier. The fact you did not do such thing is... a good sign. Many our patients try to use it for UI development, probably to show how helpless they are :-). It's only justified when the application field is input event themselves: playing back keyboard/mouse macro, Virtual Keyboards and the like.

Try:

[DllImport("user32.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Auto, CallingConvention = CallingConvention.StdCall)]
public static extern void mouse_event(long dwFlags, long dx, long dy, long cButtons, long dwExtraInfo);
private const int MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTDOWN = 0x02;
private const int MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTUP = 0x04;
private const int MOUSEEVENTF_RIGHTDOWN = 0x08;
private const int MOUSEEVENTF_RIGHTUP = 0x10;
public void MakeMouseClick()
    {
    int X = System.Windows.Forms.Cursor.Position.X;
    int Y = System.Windows.Forms.Cursor.Position.Y;
    mouse_event(MOUSEEVENTF_RIGHTDOWN | MOUSEEVENTF_RIGHTUP, X, Y, 0, 0);
    }

This causes a Right Click at the cursor position
