Drag & Drop?

Okay i have looked and there are barely any tuts for this that i can find (suprising right?) and also ya i cant get it to work at all and the few tuts there are fail hardcore and none work so do any of you guys have an actual working code for this?

one sec...lemme go see if i can make some code for you...

edit: i did a search on MSDN first and found this - Implementing Drag and Drop in Visual Basic .NET

Code:

Private MouseIsDown As Boolean = False

Private Sub TextBox1_MouseDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As _
System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.MouseDown
    ' Set a flag to show that the mouse is down.
    MouseIsDown = True
End Sub

Private Sub TextBox1_MouseMove(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As _
System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.MouseMove
    If MouseIsDown Then
        ' Initiate dragging.
        TextBox1.DoDragDrop(TextBox1.Text, DragDropEffects.Copy)
    End If
    MouseIsDown = False
End Sub

Private Sub TextBox2_DragEnter(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As _
System.Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs) Handles TextBox2.DragEnter
    ' Check the format of the data being dropped.
    If (e.Data.GetDataPresent(DataFormats.Text)) Then
        ' Display the copy cursor.
        e.Effect = DragDropEffects.Copy
    Else
        ' Display the no-drop cursor.
        e.Effect = DragDropEffects.None
    End If
End Sub

Private Sub TextBox2_DragDrop(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As _
System.Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs) Handles TextBox2.DragDrop
    ' Paste the text.
    TextBox2.Text = e.Data.GetData(DataFormats.Text)
End Sub

better than i could have done it.

heres code for draggin and dropping a picture
the previous one was for dragging a text so thats why it didnt work.

Code:

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As _
System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
    ' Enable dropping.
    PictureBox2.AllowDrop = True
End Sub

Private Sub PictureBox1_MouseDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As _
System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles PictureBox1.MouseDown
    If Not PictureBox1.Image Is Nothing Then
        ' Set a flag to show that the mouse is down.
        m_MouseIsDown = True
    End If
End Sub

Private Sub PictureBox1_MouseMove(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As _
System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles PictureBox1.MouseMove
    If m_MouseIsDown Then
        ' Initiate dragging and allow either copy or move.
        PictureBox1.DoDragDrop(PictureBox1.Image, DragDropEffects.Copy Or _
DragDropEffects.Move)
    End If
    m_MouseIsDown = False
End Sub

Private Sub PictureBox2_DragEnter(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As _
System.Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs) Handles PictureBox2.DragEnter
    If e.Data.GetDataPresent(DataFormats.Bitmap) Then
        ' Check for the CTRL key. 
        If e.KeyState = 9 Then
            e.Effect = DragDropEffects.Copy
        Else
            e.Effect = DragDropEffects.Move
        End If
    Else
        e.Effect = DragDropEffects.None
    End If
End Sub

Private Sub PictureBox2_DragDrop(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As _
System.Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs) Handles PictureBox2.DragDrop
    ' Assign the image to the PictureBox.
    PictureBox2.Image = e.Data.GetData(DataFormats.Bitmap)
    ' If the CTRL key is not pressed, delete the source picture.
    If Not e.KeyState = 8 Then
        PictureBox1.Image = Nothing
    End If
End Sub
