Question Capturing Values From Two Lists Boxes During Drag and Drop

[Doug]

Good morning,

I am a beginner to VB.NET so please excuse me if I ask something that is obvious. Here is the situation:

I have two list boxes. A users selects a value from each, clicks a button and the application creates a relationship between the two selected items by saving them in an array and displaying the relationship in a third list box.

What I want to allow is for users to be able to drag a value from one list box and drop it on top of another value. I have the code to capture the value of the item dragged but I don't see how to capture the item that the data is dropped onto.


Is there a way to capture the targeted selected item?

ListBox.IndexFromPoint Method (Point) (System.Windows.Forms)
First you have to translate the x/y location that DragDrop event provides in screen coordinates to client coordinates using the target controls PointToClient method.

Thank you!

That is perfect.
