Well, there are two ways to capture a double click within Windows.  The best
way is to set the CS_DBLCLKS flag in the wndclass.style variable of the 
WNDCLASS structure.  However, there is another way.  Whenever you receive
a WM_LBUTTONDOWN (or any other button for that matter) message, you can use
the GetMessageTime function to get the time of the action.  Then you can
compare the intervals between the clicks to a required time to see if a double
click was performed.  This is the way that you would want to process the
triple click that you speak of.

However, one word of caution.  Usually, a double click message does something in
addition to the single click message.  For instance, in WordPerfect for windows,
the single click places the caret where you want it.  The double click will
highlite a word.  And I believe that a triple click will highlite the sentence.
You see, the functions sort of build on themselves.  For instance, you would
not want the single click to select the place for the caret and then the
double click to paste.  This is awkward and also places a burden on your
mouse handling routine.  The reason is that before you get that WM_LBUTTONDBLCLK
message, you would also receive a WM_LBUTTONDOWN message from the first click.

Just use GetMessageTime to compare the time interval from the previous click 
and you will be OK.
