Drag and Drop in a ListBox control

[CoolWriter]

Hi,

How can I drag and drop the items of a ListBox?

For example, how can I drag the first item to the third items position
in a ListBox?

Thanks.

look into the DragDrop event. this gives you access to the items being dragged in, and you can specify how they get added to your listbox

Add these two events to your listbox and declare object thing as a
public variable


public void listBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender,
System.EventArgs e)
{
int temp;
temp = listBox1.SelectedIndex;
listBox1.Items.Remove(thing);
listBox1.Items.Insert(temp, thing);
}

public void listBox1_MouseDown(object
sender,System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs e )
{
int temp;
temp = listBox1.SelectedIndex;
thing = listBox1.Items[temp];
}
