[Keshava Krishna]

Kamakshi  here is your class

class yourLabel : public QLabel
{
    Q_OBJECT
    public:
    yourLbel(QWidget *parent):QLabel(parent)
    {}
    public slots:
        void dummy(){}
     signals:
        void clicked();
    protected:
    void mousePressClickEvent ( QMouseEvent* e)
    {
       emit clicked();
    }
};



now, u have got your customized class...

just use it...

yourLabel *newLabel = new yourLabel();

connect(newLabel,SIGNAL(clicked()),this,SLOT(showDialog()));

assuming that showDialog() will show wateber dialog u want....
