webform listbox drag and drop - is it possible?

[James Radke]

Hello,

I was curious, is it possible to create drag and drop interface from listbox
to listbox on a webform application (i.e. vb.net)? Basically the
application would need to load multiple listboxes with values from a
database, allow the user to drag and drop from a listbox to a different
listbox and would 'move' the item and update the database accordingly?

If so, would anyone have any examples of how to do this?

Thanks!

Jim

You may want to turn to the ng for ASP.NET Web Controls questions:

Hi James,
I think it is not standard VB.net language functionality so I think you will
need to do something on the clientside.
I gues with Script. I will advise you to ask it in this newsgroups.

When it was a textbox, it was standard VB.net language functionality, but
that you did know of course.

When you find a sollution, I am curious too

Hi James,

I think cannot be done from HTML. You may try to do that by using ActiveX
controls or .NET Windows controls (provided that all clients have the
framework installed).

Here is some KB link, you may have a look.
