I have 5 UNBOUND list boxes (not multiselect) containing value list data
(which is populated in code). I need to let my users drag and drop rows
(one at a time) from one list box to another of the 5. Of course MS Access
doesn't offer this feature stock. Anyone have any code or suggestions on how
to do this?

Thanks,

Keith
 
Access has nothing built-in to allow dragging and dropping between
listboxes. There are some third-party tools that may help:

A shareware version of Drag-N-Dropper for MS Access is available at
this web site: http://www.peterssoftware.com/dd.htm

Stephen Lebans has an example of a FieldList control that supports
drag and drop: http://www.lebans.com/vb_listbox.htm

The Forms Sample database provided by Microsoft has an example called
"Simulating Drag-And-Drop Capabilities". You can download the sample
database here: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;175066

Hope this helps,
