Jon, in PCB Editor you go to Tools->Preferences->Options->Component Drag and choose Connected Tracks mode. That would enable you to drag tracks. It works as it always did, since the DOS times. I have W2K and P99SE SP6. It drags the first segment of the track connected to the component. And while you are in the drag mode, you can't rotate the component. That's something I never really liked. Maybe someone would like to put that on the list for the DXP release. For me, with the ATS and the inflated pricing expected for the DXP, upgrade is a very, veeery distant possibility.

Protel used to do this, back in the Win 95 days. Accel's tango did it very well, too. I used to do this when tightening up a design after a first run at routing it.
