dragging from listbox

[AliKwok]

Hi

I wonder if anyone can help me: I have a simulated 'roll-your-own' drag&drop
working OK with a Listbox as drag source and msflexgrid as drop target.
The only problem is that the listbox's selected row keeps changing as the
mouse is moved over the form, because of course the listbox retains the focus
as long as the mouse button is depressed ('drag' having been initiated by the
'mousedown' event). I've tried putting a '[lisbox].locked' statement in its
'MouseMove' event handler but it achieves nothing.

Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

Where/what are you dragging to?

Hi, thanks for your attention

The msFlexgrid is on the same page of the same tabcontrol onthe same form as
the listbox. All that needs to occur is that the ID of the list item (bound
column) is used to update a record depending on where the mouse 'lands' on
the flexgrid (using its 'MouseRow' and 'MouseColumn' properties). That works
OK, EXCEPT that any up/down mouse movement relative to the listbox changes
its selection during the "drag" (ie between listbox MouseDown and MouseUp
events).

I hope I have made it clearer.

Thankyou

Ali
