I was wondering if some kind of drag and drop functionality could be
simulated in Access. I'm trying something along the lines of setting a
global variable on MouseDown and using the variable on MouseUp. Only Access
doesn't "know" where the mouse is when I release the mouse button.
Have any of you programmed some drag'n'drop functionality?

I know Peter's software has an add-in but I'd rather do it myself.
For my particular problem I have a grid of 9x9 commandbuttons simulating
shelves. This is for an inventory system. "Moving" the command buttons
should change the location of the item. Not sure this will ever work though.
Thanks for any help.
