    Drag and Drop Between Textboxes. Please Help!

    Hello everyone, I'm new here to the forums and was hoping you guys could help. I've be searching the internet for about the last 5 hours and have come up with no solutions to my problem.

    I just need some code that will allow me to 'drag and drop' a value from one textbox to another textbox on the same form. All I can find is information regarding listboxes etc.. And I tried to adapt the code to my situation, but to no avail. I've tried following the microsoft drag and drop tutorial, but it only addresses listboxes. I would really appreciate some help with this. I'm losing my mind.

    Let me know if there's anyway I can help. Thanks!

    Kevin

    was this the article? http://support.microsoft.com/kb/287642

    also try:

    http://www.google.com/#hl=en&expIds=...ec0a8ac5f5a7a2

    an easier workaround for you would be to use another feature that Access does have...or a combo of two or more.

    Yes, I've tried both of those options, but the microsoft code only seems to work with listboxes. When I attempt to use that code with textboxes, it does not work correctly. It will copy and paste once or twice, but then seems to quit working altogether. I've attached the database so you can see for yourself. It's called "test".

    I could really use the help, and any further help would be much appreciated!
