I'm trying to create a drag and drop like environment on a form. I created a borderless form that is opened and passed the vlaue of a control on another form when the mouse button is pressed. I'm stuck on how to get the borderless form to follow the mouse and then deposit (or drop) it's stored value in the new control when the mouse button is released.

Any suggestions?
 
I don't think there's an effective way to implement drag and drop in Access. However, there are other ways to present the users with familiar options to do the same thing.

Can you describe what you need to do? Are the controls on the same form? Are they list boxes or what?

Why are you finding this necessary outside of some type of appeal? . . .

Thanks for the example. This project is not a major priority - more a personal intrest. I saw an example someone was selling online and thought it should be easy enough to do.
