Bob, 1) In the datagrid source you need to have: the dgTrackDragReorder[tTheIndex] set to false If set to true, the datagrid tracks the move inside it. If set to false you are allowed to move the data outside it. Only this handler is required in the source datagrid: on dragStart local tTheIndex, tTheDragData, tTheDataControl put the dgDataControl of the target into tTheDataControl if (tTheDataControl is empty) then pass dragStart -- Prevent the move if no data control exists if (the dgHeader of the target is empty) then put the dgIndex of the dgDataControl of the target into tTheIndex set the dgDragImageIndex of me to tTheIndex ## Prepare the data to add in the datagrid 2 put the dgDataOfIndex[tTheIndex] of me into tTheDragData combine tTheDragData using tab set the dragData["private"] to tTheDragData set the dgTrackDragReorder[tTheIndex] of me to false -- Important to move the data outside end if end dragStart 2) In the destination, you need two handlers: on dragMove set the dragaction to "copy" end dragMove The dragaction will allow the datagrid to get the data you drop. on dragDrop local tTheNewData, tTheColOrder put "Col1" & cr & "Col2" into tTheColOrder put the dragData["private"] into tTheNewData send "AddLine tTheNewData, tTheColOrder" to me end dragDrop The dragDrop handler will receive the data dropped if the dragaction is allowed.
