Listbox Multiple Selection Drag and Drop Issue.......

[Robin Tucker]

Hi there,

I have a list box (just happens to be owner draw). When I select multiple
items using the CTRL key, the items I have selected become highlighted
(obviously). Now, when I click on one of the selected items in order to
initiate a Drag operation, the other items are deselected and the item I
have just clicked becomes the only one selected!

I tested this with a normal list box (not owner draw) on a simple form. I
can select multiple rows, but each time, when I select one of the selected
items to begin a drag, its as if a new selection has taken place. Is there
any way around this? The listbox control seems to do this *before* I get
the Mousedown event, so I cannot see what I can do to change this behaviour.

Thanks
Robin
