vb.net, DatagridView Context Menu Strip On Right Click On Row. Location Wrong!

brzt asked:

Open original thread
Basically what I have is a Datagridview that I want to show a context menu strip when it is right clicked. But only when right clicked on a cell, not on the header or a blank part of the datagridview control. I also want it to select the entire row when right clicked. I have the row selection working, and the context menu strip opens but it open way away from the mouse as per the screenshot.

VB
Private Sub DgvDelays_CellMouseClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewCellMouseEventArgs) Handles DgvDelays.CellMouseDown
    Dim rowClicked As DataGridView.HitTestInfo = DgvDelays.HitTest(e.X, e.Y)
    'Select Right Clicked Row if its not the header row
    If e.Button = Windows.Forms.MouseButtons.Right AndAlso e.RowIndex > -1 Then
        'Clear any currently sellected rows
        DgvDelays.ClearSelection()
        Me.DgvDelays.Rows(e.RowIndex).Selected = True
        CmsRightClick.Show(DgvDelays, New System.Drawing.Point(Windows.Forms.Cursor.Position))

    End If

End Sub
