I have a project where I would like to drag and drop text between static text fields. I can, of course, drop text on them but can't seem to be able to drag text from one to another. I tried to use the mouse up event but nothing in the mouse up event gets executed. Does anyone know how I might make this work? -Bob Top timhare Post subject: Re: Dragging and dropping between static textPosted: Thu Dec 03, 2009 3:27 am Joined: Fri Jan 06, 2006 3:21 pm Posts: 6872 Location: Portland, OR USA MouseUp doesn't happen unless you return true from MouseDown (check the manual). But you don't need mouseup. In MouseDown, you can initiate a dragitem.

I intended to use the mouse down to initiate the drag and mouse up to do the drop. If I use Return true in the mouse down event the line I had in mouse down to change the cursor to the closed hand doesn't work. Is there another way where I can have the cursor change as well as do the drag and drop?

You'll get a Drop event for whatever control you drop on.
