Not a problem! Give your label the -notify => 1 option. Now when you click it, it'll generate a WM_LBUTTONDOWN message.
Make a new global variable called $MBUTTON: our $MBUTTON = 0; Give your label an -onMouseDown event, and in the event handler, you want to: sub mousedown { $label->SetCapture(); # capture all the mouse events # get the mouse cursor pos in our window: my($ox, $oy) = $Wmain->ScreenToClient(Win32::GUI::GetCursorPos()); $MBUTTON = 1; while($MBUTTON) { # get the screen cursor pos my($mx,$my) = Win32::GUI::GetCursorPos(); # position the window under the mouse at the correct place: $Wmain->Move($mx - $ox, $my - $oy); # check for mouseup. Win32::GUI::DoEvents; } $label->ReleaseCapture; } sub mousemove { } give your label an onMouseUp event, handler: sub mouseup { $MBUTTON = 0; } now, when the mouse goes down on the label, $MBUTTON is set to 1, the label is set to capture all mouse events, and a while loop starts that allows the window to be dragged around. When the mouse is released, $MBUTTON is set to 0, and the while loop ends. Mouse is released, and you have a coffee.
