Drag and drop to form with a DTPicker

S

Sam Hobbs

I tried converting a text box to a DTPicker but now I can't drag and drop to
any control in the form.

So I tried a test; I created a new form and put a text box in it. I did not
change any properties of either the form or the text box except size and
position and the label text. I could drag and drop text to the text box.
Then I added a DTPicker control and then I was unable to drag and drop text
to the text box. Then I disabled the DTPicker control and then the drag and
drop to the text box worked again.

I have looked at the properties of the form and the DTPicker control and I
cannot find anything that seems to be relevant. Using a custom format for
the DTPicker control does not help, or at least did not have an affect when
I tried it. I tried setting OLEDropMode for the DTPicker control to manual
and that had no affect.

I assume that no one here has an answer. I aprreciate everyone that has
looked at this at least.

I will try asking this question elsewhere. I have not yet posted this
elsewhere, but if someone does have a possible answer, then I want to say
that there might be an answer elsewhere. I hope I have waited a reasonable
amount of time.

I have noticed that when I use a wizard to generate a form, drag and drop
works for some of them but not all of them. The forms are reasonably simple
that use only text boxes for controls.

Can someone suggest what other Access newsgroup would be the best to try?
