You will find a sample for moving a control here:

Notice that this is different from _dragging_ a control.

This code is for drag drop..see it and understand it..
Note: U need to set the autodrag property of textbox....
Private Sub TextBox1_DragDrop(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.DragDrop

TextBox1.Text = e.Data.GetData(DataFormats.Text).ToString()

End Sub

Private Sub Button1_MouseDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles Button1.MouseDown

Button1.DoDragDrop(Button1.Text, DragDropEffects.Copy)

End Sub



Private Sub Button2_MouseDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles Button2.MouseDown

Button2.DoDragDrop(Button2.Text, DragDropEffects.Copy)

End Sub

Private Sub TextBox1_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.TextChanged

End Sub

Private Sub TextBox1_DragEnter(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.DragEnter

e.Effect = DragDropEffects.Copy

End Sub

NetPointer

Thanks Herfried...this is just what the doctor ordered.

Really appreciate it. I have done that before in VB Classic and the way to
implement this in .NET is similar to that of the pre.NET one.

Thanks.
