Morning Gang!



Has anyone ever implemented any code which allows the user to 'drag and

drop' a selection from control to control? I had a quick squiz through

mvps.org and trigeminal.com without success.



I did find something at Petersoftware.com, but alas it requires $$ - so

before we splash out, just wondering if anyone else has any refs?



Cheers,



Andrew

Since VB5/Access 97 there have been a number of OLEDrag (and Drop)

events,methods,constants,mode properties and feedback events that you can

use to implement this kind of functionality.  I have never made much use of

it so I can't provide an example off-hand but here are some bookish

references:

Drop:Properties,Methods,Events,Manual vs Automatic,with the Windows Shell,
