Mike Trivison #1 / 7	Does Anyone Know How To Drag And Drop? Hello, Does anyonone understand the finer points of Drag-and-Drop events and methods? Here's is my problem: I have a list that I want the user to be able to drag to another window. But I don't want to drag the text of the list, I want to drag the ItemData. The ItemData contains id information that I need for the drop to work properly. If anyone knows how to do this, please let me know. Regards, Mike

I don't understand. What is Source.ItemData refering to? Could you give me an example? Thanks, Mike

You don't need to put ID information in the ItemData array to get DragDrop to work. Please clarify what you are trying to do. -- Richard Mason

Please clarify what you are trying to do. The list contains names. The ItemData contains primary keys to a database table. When the user drags the names, I want the ItemData to be dragged so that when the user drops, I can have access to the primary keys. Then I can run queries. Right now I am getting the Text not the ItemData. The drag and drop works just fine. I just want to somehow drag and drop the ItemData not the Text. Thanks for any help. Mike

I've just posted to another thread "Drag and Drop" in this newsgroup and in the lstDest_DragDrop event code changing one line would drop the ItemData for the Item. Replace lstDest.AddItem Source.List(Source.ListIndex), InsertIndex With lstDest.AddItem Source.ItemData(Source.ListIndex), InsertIndex Should do what you want. -- Richard Mason
