Drag / Drop question

Okay, I am learning about Drag/Drop operations so I am green when it comes
to this.

I have a form that draws several optional labels that are single-bordered.
I also have a dozen colored labels that I want to drop over these "drawn"
labels and on the drop, I want to color the "drawn" label the color of the
dragged label. Make sense?

The problem I am running into is based on certain criteria these "drawn"
labels are named and can appear in various columns of the form. How do I
trigger a label_DragEnter operation? And how would I "copy" the color of
the label being dragged?

Thanks for any information you can supply.

Working on a test label that I just dropped on the form (Label2), I did get
the backcolor to copy.

I guess now what I need to know is how to do this with the "drawn" labels on
the form because these labels can be random and I cannot build an event to
trigger on these labels. There could be anywhere from one to 200 labels on
this one form at any given time.
